Why is Firefox mobile's PDF view so bad, while Desktop's is perfectly fine? (slrpnk.net)

On Mobile (using Mull) the PDFs are completely pixelated and simply dont render more details. Even after zooming in it takes forever.

Meanwhile on Desktop (Librewolf, Firefox, ... on Fedora) it seems a bit slow compared to Okular, but it is very fine.

for some reason i'm not able to download it, is there aything im supposed to do other than click the unclickable download button?

Does the webpage say anything about the extension being unavailable or something? I don't know if stable Firefox has that one enabled. I use Nightly which had allowed all extensions for a long time and idk about Stable

could be that, but all i see is the page with the big blue download button (which is slightly grayed out and not working) so idk. anyway, i found in this posts thread a good pdf reader so i wont need the browser extension, thanks though
