Biggest opportunity: “bible”, “block” and “citation” aren't earning a slot. You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

of downloads still active

At least 30 of 8.5K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Blocks plugin keeps 2.1%, across 1,580 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Blocks plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
