If any Mac users are hunting for a binary, you can find one here: https://binary-factory.kde.org/job/Okular_Release_macos/

It certainly seems, though, that Macs are an afterthought for this project: the binary is unsigned, the last successful build is over six months old, and the UI isn't anti-aliased on Retina.

The primary target for this is KDE Plasma, so yes, they probably are.

That's certainly the project's prerogative, I didn't mean to come across as entitled. I think I had hoped that "universal" in this context referred to both content, and client environment. :) (And in true FOSS fashion, there's certainly nothing stopping me from contributing and improving it.)

Preview is pretty great on macOS.

Yeah, never had any real issues with preview. It does the job.

macos Preview.app is a good bar. If Okular helps Crop screenshots, Rename image files from the thumbnail side panel or title bar of the same screen I’m viewing them, and Easy “Create Copy” from an image I’ve already changed, I’ll be happier than I am with Image Viewer plus Krita plus shell plus file manager on Ubuntu.
