According to the Firefox release notes from Mozilla, firefox now
includes its own pdf viewer - click on the link or open it
in your Downloads folder

All the very best, as ever,

Thank Cater!

actually firefox for debian 11 can view my local pdf file

maybe those web sites with PDF files set MIME type 
<https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Basics_of_HTTP/MIME_types> 
incorrectly
