Import PDFs and annotate them in the app’s native format (so that I’ll still be able to remove previous changes after I save and re-open it)
Quickly add text boxes anywhere on the PDF
Draw some basic shapes and lines with different colors (can either be notability-style “draw and hold to make shape” or just a classic “insert shapes” option from the toolbar)
Have a page thumbnail option and can search text in the PDF file and quickly go there

Doesn’t MacOS do this natively?

But MacOS's pdf editor saves the file as PDF, which means I can't change a text box or drawing I already did once I save the file and delete previous versions. And I'm planning to switch to linux in the future so I want something open source.

Doesn’t it let you do that? Have you tried?

Works for me iirc, but haven’t gone crazy with it.
