On FreeBSD with Firefox this PDF opened right away, just saying
Loaded for me too, zero issues.
Firefox and chrome will both open the PDF by default unless you tell it to use your own reader.

Both gnome and KDE come with a capable reader better than your browser.

If you don't like those there are several options.

Reading a pdf under Linux is super easy.

if you want "everything in the world" to not be "so hard" you'd probably avoid Linux.
