The Electron bloat of Polar buys you much better cross-platform features than the KDE bloat of Okular.
Okular is ok as long as you run only linux. In theory you could run it also on macOS or Windows, but you have to jump through the hoops. That's not optimal for a productivity application.
- anoncake 8y agoWhat kind of cross-platform features does Electron provide that Okular does not have?
