but if they just gave you pdf, how would they track every mouse movement for their bullshit metrics?
Advertisers? Think of the managers! Managers are nothing without their metrics.

Works for some places at least. Super infuriating though. Why use the fast native PDF viewer in the browser when you could use a bloated and buggy JS app?
Very informative, but I'd change one small thing.
Why use the fast native PDF viewer
in the browserwhen you could use a bloated and buggy JS app?Fair, but certain corporate-mandated client-side PDF viewers are... bloatier. Though, I do like not having another window to manage when I open in browser, particularly when doing web searches. It pairs well with tab grouping extensions, and I generally don't use markup, so no loss for me there.
I use searxng and it has some option that automaticly replaces links wich just give u the pdf based on the doi or whatever its called.
PDF button? Or time to create an account to get a subscription to access that PDF!
