`less` is a great program, despite being old there aren't really many flaws. It's one of those tools that don't really need updates or improvements. But I do think there are a few features which would be nice to have (automatic ANSI coloring, tailing, syntax highlighting, support for files like sqlite and tar - which of which are in ov).

The one thing which `less` may have over `ov` (besides already being on most distros) is speed. `less` takes in really large files, or forever terminal output, and is still really fast. And I find that when I use `less` I use it with large files or terminal output often. Though I don't actually know if `ov` is any slower, it's something the dev should watch out for (I don't see "speed" mentioned in the README).
