I think one of the largest and best place to find plugins is still CodeCanyon[0]. Because it has such a big audience and established market the good plugins are usually quickly separated from the bad ones.

Even the high rated plugins there are pretty terrible and some are downright security nightmares. Just be careful.

Also have run into a ton of plugins that don't play nice with dockerized deploys (they want write access and don't use the native wordpress functions).

I agree, it's still a minefield and for a really big business where the site being down a few days is a disaster it's not the way to go. I still think that for the average user, WordPress + themes + plugins is the easiest (not best, but easiest) and cheapest way to go.
