Which PDF reader do you use on Linux?

Question

I read a lot of PDFs, and I cannot find a good reader on Linux. Evince does not support tabs and has no history navigation (back/forward). Qpdfviewer does have those features, but lacks proper text selection. Okular requires a big installation and KDE libraries, which are fine if you use KDE, but I don't. There are many other minimal readers, but they are too basic for my needs. Session persistence in a PDF reader would be nice too.Which one do you use? How do you like it?I think there is big room for improvement in this space. Nothing comes close to PDFExpert on the iPad...

Okular requires a big installation and KDE libraries, which are fine if you use KDE, but I don't.I don't understand this argument. On Windows and Mac you install apps which come statically built against tens of libraries and you're fine with it.Yet on Linux, it's such a big deal if an app uses a few libraries (which are reused by tens of different apps).> I cannot find a good reader on LinuxIt's called Okular. You just have some stigma against installing a few megabytes of libraries.
