Are you going to open that PDF in Adobe Reader? If yes, Adobe has this friendly AI assistant forced into your face and overlapping floating toolbar on all sides of your document that you cannot get rid of to get a clean view of the document itself. So your dream of a simple lightweight clutterfree PDF reader will remain a dream, unfortunately.
I mean if he’s searching for a good PDF reader I doubt he’ll be opening it in Adobe Reader
I had assumed it went the way of Adobe Flash many years ago.

#30Who the hell keeps making those? First I saw Tetris, now a whole OS. Awesome!
Linux in browser existed for a while. And if PDF can run JS then just put "Linux.js" in PDF. JS opens up a whole can of worms.
