I prefer the pdf version, mostly. I can annotate it on the side both in print and digitally with my iPad. I can also invert colors in pdf readers to get some kind of “dark mode” easily.

The html version is wasting a lot of space on the right side and the color scheme is awful (dark grey on a brown background, seriously? How is that any better? Edit: disabling dark mode yields a better reading experience wrt color scheme). Also, somehow links to references make another http request and have no backlink?

The html version could make sense if it had more dynamic functionalities: change fonts/line spacing, toggle color schemes, maybe a mini map or some other navigational tool? Also, some kind of support for highlighting and/or annotating?
