KOReader. The app is multiplatform (also for some e-readers and Linux) so the UI is not among the most beautiful (but I actually prefer it over Librera), but it’s feature packed, and does really well what it’s made for.
I’ve been using MuPDF for pdf’s and Libera for epubs, both on f-droid. Libera can also read pdf’s but for reasons I don’t remember, it wasn’t as usable for them as MuPDF is, at least for me. So I stayed with MuPDF.
I use Firefox on Linux and its pdf reader sort of works but it is really bad compared to a dedicated reader, e.g. when you want to scroll quickly or zoom the magnfication around. Try downloading a pdf book from archive.org and reading it with Firefox. I’m using the LTE version from Debian so maybe that isn’t as good as some of the other builds though, hmm.

I have xodo on my phone and love it. I use bluebeam at work but it costs money.

Try KOREADER.

I’m surprised nobody mentioned a browser, never thought to go beyond it. Any reason people have/prefer dedicated software aside from a browser?
dark mode
native and user-created bookmarks

+1 for MuPDF. It’s so lightweight it almost feels like a native part of the OS
Firefox has a PDF reader built in these days.
It’s 👍 but barebones. No dark mode and support for native and user-created bookmarks.
It is pretty terrible though.
Yeah no idea why but on Android its bad, on Linux just fine
Nah it’s crap on Linux too. Maybe not quite as bad. On Linux I generally use atril or xpdf these days.
Firefox on Linux (binary, Fedora, Flathub, compiled) is very good for PDF reading

In what way? It works quite alright for me.
Bad rendering at times, jankiness during scrolling, etc.
No 😔
MJ PDF is the best I could find.
There’s a lot to like about Atril (native to MATE).
Librera reader off f-droid works great for me
I’d say you can just use a browser if it’s a quick check. MoonReader is really nice for ebooks and it cloud syncs your current spot.
MuPDF
