Reviewer account pattern

from wp.org reviewer profiles

17 of the last 30 four- and five-star reviews came from accounts created within a month of posting the review, and 8 of those landed between 2026-03-12 and 2026-03-30.

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.
