Best font detection extension!

Seems to do the trick. It appears to me that many of the font identification extensions (including this one) are using the open source codebase from the original and most popular "WhatFont" extension by Cheng Yin Liu first released many years ago (https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/whatfont/jabopobgcpjmedljpbcaablpmlmfcogm/). This means many of the available font identification extension are essentially identical. However, this one (What The Font" Web Font Inspector) has added a pin to the pop-up modal, giving it a nice point of difference. The other extensions (those that appear to have utilised the WhatFont code) always pin every font-info pop-up. With What The Font you can choose which to pin, and which to not.
