Shameless plug:
If you use okular to tead research paper and textbooks you may be interested in sioyek which is an open source PDF viewer specifically designed for that.

I was intrigued enough by your description to try this out. The video demo is great and very convincing. But using the app is a pain because of horrible defaults. First, the scroll area is much bigger than the document I'm looking at. I found myself fighting to re-center it. Second, the horizontal scroll directions are inverted. Scrolling left pans right. Scrolling right pans left. The app has myriad options, so perhaps these issues are easily fixed. But it's not a great first impression.
You are right. These issues have beenn fixed in recent commits but the release builds are from an older commit.
This looks interesting.
I use logseq's integrated pdf reader for these scenarios - while it can be sluggish at times, it is helpful to be able to read, outline, highlight & crosslink things in the same application.
