A function call to __() with texts containing placeholders was found, but was not accompanied by a "translators:" comment on the line above to clarify the meaning of the placeholders.
Using exclusionary parameters, like post__not_in, in calls to get_posts() should be done with caution, see https://wpvip.com/documentation/performance-improvements-by-removing-usage-of-post__not_in/ for more information.
print_r() found. Debug code should not normally be used in production.
load_plugin_textdomain() has been discouraged since WordPress version 4.6. When your plugin is hosted on WordPress.org, you no longer need to manually include this function call for translations under your plugin slug. WordPress will automatically load the translations for you as needed.

Tested up to: 6.9 < 7.0. The "Tested up to" value in your plugin is not set to the current version of WordPress. This means your plugin will not show up in searches, as we require plugins to be compatible and documented as tested up to the most recent version of WordPress.
The plugin name includes a restricted term. Your chosen plugin name - "Gutenverse - WordPress Blocks, Page Builder & Site Editor" - contains the restricted term "wordpress" which cannot be used at all in your plugin name.
Function "traverse_and_serialize_blocks()" requires WordPress 6.4.0, but your plugin minimum supported version is WordPress 5.9.0.
