Glad this exists! But it would be 5 stars if I could manually enter a font name instead of being stuck using the hard coded list

Is Overleaf Font Switcher Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Overleaf Font Switcher requires very minimum permissions.
