Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.
Release cadence
Occasionally updatedHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Estimated value
What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.
Est. annual revenue
Est. acquisition value
No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

I’m installing this plugin over a bunch of sites on many different hosting providers. So far has worked flawlessly.

If you do not want to use a plugin, just add the following lines to your function.php function disable_floc($headers) { $headers['Permissions-Policy'] = 'interest-cohort=()'; return $headers; } add_filter('wp_headers', 'disable_floc');

After reading about Federated Learning of Cohorts (FLoC), I knew I wanted my site pages excluded from FLoC analysis. Thanks for making this so easy to implement. Added your plugin to my site this morning, confirmed the setting, and it’s good to go.
