I need a PDF reader for Linux that can handle comments well - overview list, add a comment etc. I need to go through a proof reading of a book 500 pages long, so it need to work well. Any recommendations?
@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(https://https://www.jopdf.com/) 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?
@malte@radikal.social You're absolutely a smart guy!

@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.
@malte@radikal.social You’ve got a sharp eye. :)
@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!
