I’m currently using readera but it’s not that good (text scaling is behind a paywall)
Edit:the ability to put stuff into categories would be neat btw
librera
Librera Reader (Book and PDF reader) https://f-droid.org/packages/com.foobnix.pro.pdf.reader/
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.
+1 for MuPDF. It’s so lightweight it almost feels like a native part of the OS
MuPDF
That’s what I’m using:

I would advise to use open-source software wherever you can. You (almost) never have paywalls, ads or trackers there ;)
Firefox has a PDF reader built in these days.
It is pretty terrible though.
In what way? It works quite alright for me.
Bad rendering at times, jankiness during scrolling, etc.
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
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.
It’s 👍 but barebones. No dark mode and support for native and user-created bookmarks.
SumatraPDF or zathura + zathura-pdf-mupdf
Try KOREADER.
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.
I liked the PDF viewer from GrapheneOS https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.grapheneos.pdfviewer.play
I had Readera Premium purchased 3 years ago when I wasn’t aware of really great free softwares’ existence. I had bought it because of it’s simple interface and thought it could help me with OPDS (auto sync between devices or other apps), but it didn’t help me other than by just being simple. That’s why I am currently hosting my own OPDS server (Kavita) to sync my progress and read from it’s web interface and Librera app (really powerful and open source). I am thinking of moving to Calibre Web from Kavita because of ease of uploading books. You can try Librera which is a really great and powerful pdf/book viewer/reader with/without OPDS.
No 😔
I have xodo on my phone and love it. I use bluebeam at work but it costs money.
MJ PDF is the best I could find.
Librera reader off f-droid works great for me
