This functionality with PDFs is natively built into MacOS. One of the reasons I chose a Mac for my latest PC.

I'm often less excited about a solo dev doing "freeway out of the kindness of his heart" and more interested in seeing OSS software gather around a foundation scheme with some corporate sponsors, Blender-style

I don't know much about Blender but if OSS still needs corporate sponsors to stay competitive:

1. What's the point? Might as well become a for profit company themselves then.
2. Why would any for profit company sponsor FOSS? They will literally not make profit on it.

Sure, 79 people who probably aren't paid who volunteered however many minutes of their free time per week over 22 years (not to mention they may be active anywhere between 0-22 years on the project) vs. 300 full time employees who are salaried and do this day in day out, eight hours a day.

I agree with you but one is a for profit product launched by a company with multiples of employees working full-time and with funding to compete with Adobe.

The other is freeware made by some dude and maybe a few volunteers in their free time out of the goodness of their heart.

You can't really compare the two.

This is the exact energy you should go and bring to the Republican party and stop bothering us with. I'm certain they will welcome you.

And yet every single time the middle of the road Democrat wins.

It couldn't be that the middle of the road Democrat is simply popular among the majority of the voting population? Nah couldn't be. Everybody in my family loves when I rant about the benefits of communism at Thanksgiving.

So where, pray tell, do the progressive votes go?

Silly wabbit. Progressives don't vote.
