AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Global Styles Mods – WordPress 5.9 fix is a category-leading WordPress app with a limited review volume. Category data on the canonical marketplace listing is currently incomplete, so AppRanks falls back to platform-wide rather than category-relative comparison for this listing. 3 reviews put it in the early-traction tier — useful for early-stage stores willing to be on the leading edge. Early-traction review counts are sensitive to single launch periods or feature events, so a 30-day re-check before bigger commitments often resolves whether the trend is sustained. Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.

Technical info WordPress 5.9 started applying !important rule and is setting up CSS properties (CSS variables) within body selector in its global styles code. This rises the global styles specificity and may override styles coming from themes and plugins. (For more info about this change check “Updates for Settings, Styles, and theme.json” article.)
Global Styles Mods plugin lowers the specificity of WordPress 5.9 global CSS styles by removing !important rules and changing body to :root selector for setting up WordPress CSS properties (CSS variables).
It also enqueues the global styles early enough so your theme or plugin stylesheet have a better chance to override global styles with minimal effort.
The fix applied is coming from issue conversation in Gutenberg GitHub repository.
