Biggest opportunity: “facebook feed”, “instagram” and “instagram feed” 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 400 of 24.7K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Social plugin keeps 0.5%, across 1,276 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Social plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.

Release cadence

Reviewer account pattern
from wp.org reviewer profiles10 of the last 15 four- and five-star reviews came from accounts created within a month of posting the review.
Registering a wp.org account just to leave a review is common and often entirely legitimate. The share here is unusually high for the sample, so it's worth keeping in mind while reading the reviews.

You can only add 1 feed in the free version. Not even worth it for testing.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ spcinno9.4y ago
Free version is incredibly limited and a basically a complete waste of time. Would not recommend unless you’re ready to purchase. Leaving 1 star because I despise plugins that oversell a free version that is unusable.
