What is the best reader for Windows right now?
Hello. Tell me, please, what is the best (more or less modern) reader for epub, PDF, FB2 formats at the moment? To read them all, and not several programs for each format. I have highlighted STDU Viewer and Sumatra PDF so far, but the interface design there is terrible, it is very unpleasant to use this in 2020.

I settled on Sumatra PDF by editing the config. I hid the navigation bar (so as not to see these ancient icons) and tweaked a few details for myself. At the moment, this is the best that I could do for my task. I am attaching a screenshot of how the book looks in this reader now.
If anyone suddenly needs it, here is the config:
MainWindowBackground = #80fff200

FixedPageUI [

As much as I would not like to have one program, for fb2 / epub / txt / html - definitely icebookreader
for PDF, you can watch others
For pdf, definitely Sumatra PDF! Works very fast even on weak PCs. I even use it in Linux (via wine).
I have highlighted STDU Viewer and Sumatra PDF so far, but the interface design there is terrible, it is very unpleasant to use this in 2020.And you are not looking at the program interface, but at the text of the book. Helps.
Foxit reader is a good free reader

Look at Universal Viewer, with installed plugins it opens almost all popular formats.
I tried everything that is written and even more. The most universal solution for me is Caliber 3.48 , namely 3.48, since further, as for me, the interface was spoiled.
The reader interface itself changes easily with css. I made a dark theme for myself.
html {
background: #000000;
}
::selection {
background-color: #4BE7E0;
}
body {
background: #0d1117;
color: #f0f0f0;
font-family: "Segoe UI";
font-size: 17px;
line-height: 1.5;
margin: 0 auto;
max-width: 1300px;
padding: 2em 2em 4em;
}
h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 {
font-weight: 600;
line-height: 1.3;
background-color: #0d1117 !important;
border: none !important;
}
h1 {
color: #289aff;
}
h2 {
margin-top: 1.3em;
color: #00f56a;
}
h3 {
color: #0af7ff;
}
a {
color: #f9f871;
}
b, strong {
font-weight: 600;
}
samp {
display: none;
}
img {
animation: colorize 2s cubic-bezier(0, 0, .78, .36) 1;
background: transparent;
border: 10px solid rgb(145, 143, 140);
border-radius: 4px;
display: block;
margin: 1.3em auto;
max-width: 95%;
}
@keyframes colorize {
0% {
-webkit-filter: grayscale(100%);
filter: grayscale(100%);
}
100% {
-webkit-filter: grayscale(0%);
filter: grayscale(0%);
}
}
