Figma Plugins 🤝 Reviews

The concept today is simple:

I came across a tweet about someone complaining that Figma Plugins didn't have reviews. When looking for a Figma Plugin, you can only assess its quality based on the number of users (or downloads) and the number of "hearts." But what if something has a high number of users and a low number of hearts? Is it necessarily a bad plugin? Or what about a few users but a large number of "hearts"? Is that good or bad? The problem is that there needs to be a direct way to know. And it got me thinking...

What If...

Figma introduced a review system for their plugins.

Reviews/ratings are a common pattern on the World Wide Web when it comes to purchasing or using a service. So, I don't see why this would not be useful for Figma plugins. It will drive up the quality of plugins and make it easier for the user to choose a plugin based on ratings.

Win, win, win... right?
