I know very little about contributing to open source but appreciated reading this. Seems like often the interpersonal element is the biggest challenge and the author handled it well.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Was this app removed from flathub¿? I wanted to try this after reading about it but can't find it on flathub. The flathub link given on the project gitlab page also leads to 404 page not found error
The wiki page also doesn't exist yet so I think its probably just that they took the Evince readme and changed all the links and its not actually published yet
