I use it every day
by Lucas Bruzzone, 2022-11-03

This is the best measurement extension I've found so far. Dragging the guide lines from the edges is much less fiddly than trying to click in the right place. Very easy to get an accurate measurement. Lots of options to get a good readout. Enabling the extension by changing the "show extension" option makes me worry that it'll always be on, just not visible, and therefore might affect performance. So far it's a great extension though!
