Fonts Plugin | Use Google Fonts, Adobe Fonts or Upload Fonts

Have removed the loading of Google Fonts from my own theme and was looking for an alternative. Found the Fonts Plugin and all I can say it's easy to use. It hooks into commonly used CSS id/class selectors, so plugin works well with many themes. Free version has enough options for me, but to host fonts local (GDPR) you must buy the PRO version. Great support from developer as well.
