Any good recommendations for PDF editors/tools to comment on PDFs. Essentially whats the OSS alternative to Adobe acrobat? I'm a TA and need to give students feedback on reports and haven't found something that easy to use so just wanted to see what the community recommends.

Firefox has become great for simple forms and annotations. I used to dick around with libre draw or inkscape or such but I generally just need to add some text or check a box and firefox does that about as well as anything else even on a photo type pdf.
