Sorry for the late response.
I believe it makes performance improvements so I’ll run benchmark script.
I didn’t know about serializer plugins. I found one example of plugins that customize serializer.
Here, include_votes? method seems a magic method from AMS since I cannot find where it’s used in the codebase. I think we need some migration in such cases since Alba doesn’t support this behavior.
Keeping compatibility must be important, so if I cannot make Alba compatible with existing plugins, I prefer not moving on.
