I need a PDF reader for Linux that can handle comments well - overview list, add a comment etc.

@malte@radikal.social Based on your needs for proofreading a 500-page book—strong support for adding comments (e.g., text notes, highlights), viewing an overview list of all annotations (like a sidebar), and efficient navigation—JOPDF() is among my top recommendations for upcoming Linux PDF reader. It focuses on native, completely free option where possible, prioritizing reliability with large files. You'll have to wait a little while over the available Linux version, but it won't be too long. #pdf #linux #mac #windows #freeware
@PiterP Thanks for responding. Out of curiosity, did you generate the answer with the assistance of an LLM?

@PiterP Apparently not smart enough to get your answer! Does that mean you did?

@malte@radikal.social Yes, I did, because I'm not a native English speaker. Thanks for asking!

@PiterP That makes two of us. I thought I could recognize the "signature" of an LLM in there.

@PiterP I've become more aware of it as I've noticed that answers generated from LLM generally have lots of noise and often serious mistakes. Yours seemed to be more of a translation of your own answer, if I understand you well. If I don't know, I'm the kind of person that assumes the whole answer was LLM-generated and will normally ignore it.

@malte@radikal.social You can rely on my answer and the completely free tool I recommend, I didn't mean to generate a fake answer with LLM, just to make myself more clear. Thanks!

@PiterP I got it! You were merely using it as a translation tool

@malte@radikal.social Most of the time, LLM is a good translator.

@PiterP Thanks! Just gave it a go and I'm impressed by the speed of the interface, even with a large PDF. I can't seem to answer and interact with the annotations though. Do you have experience with this?
