Jessica Salmonson (darkocean) (ID: 0000006951e60248) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 06/10/2023 It's been acting buggy for a while now, it'll suddenly stop working and I to reset it up again. And today the Arial font is missing along with a couple of others making this annoying to use in imop. I'll come back later if this gets fixed. Update: Had to put it back in all other addons are awful. I'll live with this until you can fix the bugs. My main favorite features this extension has is: Being able to choose the fonts, increase the size,the apply to' option is really nice, and choose color is great too! This *is* the greener pasture, props to the developer. The only thing missing is Ko-fi to donate. :)
