It has been taken over by Gnomes GTK3 retardation

mupdf
High quality font rendering + vi bindings
>>
Some anon on IRC recommend muPDF. It changed my life. It has vim-like keybinding and it's remarkably minimalistic
>>
Kindle Paperwhite if it's over 20 pages or so
>>
Pocketbook
All else is incorrect and harmful.
>>
>>55567967
sumatra is windows only but based on mupdf afair

Evince on PC, Foxit on Android (in lack of good FLOSS apps)
