en this is straight up 5 star material, because it is the only one that works as intended so far for me. the bionic text part is good. I love people who go out of their way to improve the world on their own, like the dev with this plugin. Looking at it from a functionality perspective though, this is a 4 because of a very minor detail. it would be a solid 5 stars IF it worked on all websites automatically, without having to turn it on again and again. whenever a new page loads it needs to be turned on. even if you have turned it on under a domain once. :(( I understand the developer's concern about security and experience going messy in some websites. but hey, if the person turns those settings on, give them a warning and be done aye? I appreciate the developer being concerned about the user and trying to protect them, but having such a choice would be nice for those that understand the risks. I use this in a browser where i only read stories. it's a bigger deal for me because unfortunately I am using it on something the developer didn't intend to use it on, in kiwi browser on mobile, so hotkey (which the dev has added) isn't an option for me. it seems the dev has been given this suggestion many times in the comments, i hope this feature gets added someday. don't get me wrong, for something available for free, it's awesome and lightweight

en I would like to also echo that there should be a setting to "enable automatically" and If I want to disable it on a page (because It wasnt working for some reason) I will do it.
