Comment (by jeffr0):

 It may not be the answer to the problem, but I think having a way to
 search for plugins based on common phrases of what features I'm looking
 for is pretty cool. I'm guessing it also provides lesser known plugins to
 gain more exposure as it's not so much a popularity contest they're trying
 to win. https://ploogins.com/
