      @tomatocash Yes, as already explained here, extensions in Opera store are manually reviewed most of the times. That's why you don't usually see fake extensions like in Chrome store.

      Would you say, that the quality of the Opera extensions is better than the Mozilla extensions?

        @extensions Don't know, I would need to compare them to say something.

          Imo the quality on Mozilla and Opera is similar. The important difference: the moderation on Mozilla takes 5 minutes, on Opera many days. Mozilla checks the extensions automatically, in some cases manual checks happen additionally. That's the way to go.

          The current situation at Opera is just unreasonable. It seems to be, that the Opera management is not interested in extension developers. Otherwise the situation would have been already improved instead of just talking about it. Who is responsible for extensions in the management?

                  Mine passed moderation yesterday. Usually it takes a couple of days, but this time several weeks.

                      I have been waiting to get a reply from reviewers for any of the submitted extensions for 9 months now. They are available for Firefox and Chrome.

                        I have been waiting for my Opera add-on to be reviewed since October (7 months ago). I keep uploading new versions as we release to Chrome, Edge, and Firefox, but still no response to our initial Opera submission.

                        Opera, we have many Opera users who are asking for our Extension, can you provide any help here? Squeaky wheel gets the grease? 🙂

                            @verifiedfirst I'm sure you will get never an answer. Opera doesn't care about extension developers nor about this forum.

                            From time to time some random guy posts "We know we have to improve and are working on it". That's it. No improvement happens.

                                  Almost 5 months here - have they stopped reviewing extensions and just not bother to tell developers?

                                    The update for Web Panel was approved a couple of days ago, approximately one month after submission. They seem to be working, but understaffed.

                                        Our extension was submitted on November 21 2017.
                                        Still no approval, so after 9 month wait we just delete it. Opera has really low user base, so it's pointless to wait this long.

                                          Hello, guys. We wait very long while our extension will complete moderation. What can we do for speed up the process?

                                            @roskvartal you might go through the code and check naming... and resend it.
