Ah yes iOS where refreshing a page now requires you to menu dive instead of having an always accessible button up top

On macOS too now, it’s beyond ridiculous.
Tap the top of the screen and Safari jumps to the top of the page. Pull down to refresh.
What if I don't want to lose my spot in the page by scrolling to the top[1]? This is a straight up UI regression. Just because there are workarounds doesn't mean it's not shit.

Edit:

[1] For example if I want to load new comments in a HN thread I'm reading.

That's three steps that used to take one. In exchange for losing the capability to quickly refresh a webpage in a browser we got... nothing?
