Via Keeping, a request for Featured Images in RSS for Mailchimp & More

In a few words, what does it do? *
This plugin fetches thumbnail images for existing RSS feed items.

Please provide a link to the plugin on the WordPress theme repository or (https://wordpress.org/themes/) plugin repository (https://wordpress.org/plugins/) *
https://wordpress.org/plugins/featured-images-for-rss-feeds/

Please research the release history and popularity of the plugin. How many times has it been downloaded? When was it last updated? *
Version1.6.2 | Last updated 7 months ago | Active installations20,000+

How is the plugin/theme different from what's already provided on the Commons? *
This plugin is supposed to fetch images for existing RSS feed items for free. The existing plugins either do that for a premium cost, do not work with Wordpress full block editor themes, or do not fetch images.

Please let us know who you are (include a link to your site) and who will use this tool? *
