> First, if you like Okular, you're stuck if you want to run on any other platform. It doesn't work on mobile, it doesn't work on the web, doesn't work on Linux, MacOS or Windows

You did directly say it doesn't run on Linux. Even with your qualification I don't think that's fair. It requires the KDE libs, yes, but that's not really a high cost apart from some disk space. Apart from that, it obviously runs perfectly well even in another desktop environment. I even use it on my Chromebook.

AH!!! ok.. definitely my fault. I meant to say it's not really cross-platform and doesn't run on all platforms.

This was a big requirement for me - the ability to move between all platforms.
