I would agree, that the Popularity does correlate to its lifetime, and thus we both conclude that it is not particularly useful.
However, I would also say, that thread is mainly focused around changing or adding to the VCV library itself, and there could be a number of reasons why that would be problematic to either Andrew or Rack users.
My thoughts are that if a large enough proportion of the community want some sort of rating or review system for plugins and modules, then it should be independent, created, controlled and maintained by the community… we (the community) just have to figure out how to achieve something like that…
