en Works great after I toggle it off then on again with the toolbar icon. Otherwise it doesn't seem to work on initial page loads (or by refreshing the page, only kicks in by manually toggling it despite the icon indicating that it is enabled already)

Works for everything except when using the back button to return to a google search or when reopening a prior closed tab containing a google search which the zoom is changed from the default 100% to 150%

Thank you! I truly love you! Rant: its awful that this is even required on Chrome, but it is what it is. Sadly I can't change browsers because of work.

You receive what's advertised, what more do you guys want😅 This extension is great for websites such as calculators, or websites where ctrl +/- could be a important command.

Great extension except it also resets the zoom to 100% and won't let you just disable it at a specific setting for a specific website, say at 125%. Meh.

Need to set zoom on a per site basis not per tab basis.
