My competitor is in this list and I'm not, even though my site is more popular. There even are some small Dutch campings, municipalities and regional football clubs on this list. It's a strange list for sure.

#102Ha! This explains why I always get "cookieandkate.com" suggested when I want to visit another site that starts with "cookie". I was extremely frustrated that it suggested that site with higher priotity than the one I actually visit mostly every day. And I had never myself gone to that site. Now I know why...
That's very strange, you'd expect Apple to provide a good UX by suggesting a website from your bookmarks, history and then their list. I wonder whether that's an oversight or an intentional implementation.

#105Ugh, I guess that's why the iOS browsers all suck so hard with autocomplete? I always long for Firefox's url bar, it easily beats everything else since Firefox 2 came out or so. Nowadays you have to un-configure two layers of "let's put a search bar in your URL bar" but then it's still just amazing. Especially compared to google, which obviously doesn't have an incentive to have you skip searching on google.com... an…
> Ugh, I guess that's why the iOS browsers all suck so hard with autocomplete? No. Contrary to popular belief, browsers on iOS aren’t all Safari skins. They all use WebKit, but there’s a vast amount of functionality in a web browser that isn’t handled by the rendering engine. This is one example. Non-Safari browsers on iOS are free to use whatever address bar implementation they like. If Firefox on iOS has a crap add…

>No. Contrary to popular belief, browsers on iOS aren’t all Safari skins. I know some people hate Apple for both good and bad reasons, but it's pretty wild to me people think Apple does this. I mean right out the gate that would be pretty illegal, no?
Every browser you use is forced by App Store policy to run off of the system WebView, which is Safari...other features being part of the browser doesn't change being forced into using that engine.

You should "make of" it that Apple consider it a popular domain people try and navigate to
You think apple are above censorship at the behest of politicians?
