      in the past it took about a day or 2 for an extension update to be approved by opera, at present the delay seems much longer, ive not heard any response from opera devs for days now regarding my extension update, is something wrong at opera hq? the update is only a few lines of code, so not like it needs days of study or anything.

      are any othe opera addon developers experiencing strangely long delays in update approvals?

          @leocg thanks for the reply. wow, thats a very long and very old thread. personally, ive not had any problems recently up until this month. ocassionaly (on the odd occasion) i found opera were actually the fastest to approve my extension compared to other browser companies. thats why im finding this extra long wait rather strange.

            @leocg said in what has happened to extension update approval times?:

            s/

            i was wondering if it was something to do with the extension still using Manifest v2... then today got an blanket email from opera saying they will lbe deprecating MV2 shortly, so it probably is somethign to do with that, the email says they are also going to create a totally new addons directory that will only allow MV3 extensions in. I guess i better convert my extension to MV3 and see if that speeds up the approval time...

              My Mv3 add-on has been waiting for approval for exactly 6 months. 🤷🏻
