About Vendi Abandoned Plugin Check
From the official readme · v5.0.4Description

Frequently asked questions
Does this work with multisite?
This has not been tested yet.
Why does this check all plugins instead of just activated plugins?
Old code is old code.
Not all of my plugins are showing a last updated date
This plugin queries the WordPress.org database via the official API. If your plugin is not listed in this database then we won’t report a date on it. Also, this plugin (as of 3.0.0) runs in batch mode, executing 10 plugins at a time. It attempts to respawn itself but depending on your configuration this may or may not work.
I’ve activated this plugin, now what?
Depending on how many plugins you have installed it might take a couple of minutes to find the last updated date of every installed plugin. Go to your Plugins page and refresh every couple of seconds. If you don’t see notes after 5 minutes there might be an actual problem. If your server is not able to make remote calls this plugin won’t work. Also, if you’ve disabled WordPress’s scheduling system this plugin will not work.
