Biggest opportunity: “carousel slider”, “html slider” and “image slider” 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.

How it's measured →1.3%
of downloads still active
At least 500 of 38.2K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Media plugin keeps 0.8%, across 2,321 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Media plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

Reviewer account pattern
from wp.org reviewer profiles22 of the last 24 four- and five-star reviews came from accounts created within a month of posting the review, and 7 of those landed between 2021-08-31 and 2021-09-29.
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.
