Small, working and for free
Thank you for that plugin. I use it since years on nearly every website I am creating and still it is working. But lately I experienced some warnings about deprecated code.

Install and forget
I used this plugin on different sites and - of course - doublecheck the functionality from time to time.As other guys also stated here, the plugin works reliable with different versions of WP since years.So great!

Works flawlessly!
Although it's 4 years old, it does the job pretty well. Even better than many actual plugins. Great plugin. Installed it on a site with my own theme. Has just a small settings window, and from the first load of the website it recognized, downloaded, cached and hosted all Google Fonts. So it seems it's GDPR compliant. Easy and simple! Great plugin, thumbs up 👍
