Doubt that. Popularity comes with heaps of PRs, some useful some less.

If anyone used a JSON parser that took 4 minutes to parse a file you bet the author would know by the time the 100th user comes around.

I had a tiny barely-used detection library that didn’t detect it correctly in a new Edge browser update. Someone complained about it within the first month. The library has 20 stars and Edge has 500 users.

Edit: Correction, it was 9 days after the browser release.
