Very long extension moderation process

We submitted a new version of our extension in February, two months ago. Such a long review process hurts us and our clients. Is there any way to make it faster?

On May 29, 2020 it is going to be a year since I submitted Ant Video downloader extension for moderation.

Since then I pushed 5 new versions already, all hanging in 'Awaiting moderation' state:

• Version 4.7 – Apr 21, 2020 11:12:22 AM
• Version 4.6 – Mar 12, 2020 9:21:46 AM
• Version 4.5 – Feb 11, 2020 3:10:43 PM
• Version 4.4 – Dec 10, 2019 5:02:56 PM
• Version 4.3 – May 29, 2019 11:52:08 AM

Sent a message at the Conversations tab — no response.

The same version for Mozilla Firefox is being published on AMO for I don't know how many years:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/video-downloader-player/

Publishing process there is automated and takes only several minutes. But even back in the old dark days when they were manually checking add-ons it still took days, not even weeks.

Here at Opera it seems to be a lottery: some add-ons are getting updated regularly, others are waiting in line for weeks / months / years.

Hello!
On Apr 3, 2020 we submitted new version of extension (id: 244169), but no any feedback so far from moderator.

We have been trying to publish our extension since December 2019, but we cannot because of the terrible moderation. Only part of our versions has been checked. In checked versions I see only automatic verification. No major complaints about the code. Why automatic verification takes so match time?

Our application has been available in chrome and mozilla stores for a long time. I can say that guys from Mozilla really checks the code and do it fast enough (3-5 days).

Hello, I've submitted my extension to the opera.store. The automatics verification was passed within 1h period and now my extension is fit to Opera.Dev and Opera.Next
But I've been waiting for couple of months for the extension to be available on the Opera.Stable. Nothing happens.
All i have is Moderator's note:
@ Your extension needs to be manually reviewed and moderated before it can be added to Opera Stable. @

the extension ID is:
iblipoflhcnginbkkndncicgegjpfbok

What i'm doing wrong? Please, help.

Our extension has been awating moderation since Jul 21, 2020: "Hide My IP v1.0.36 was submitted. Awaiting moderation." and the extension ID is: okkpfaeofjkckljjlpnkclopjlgkdikf

There has not been any update or response from the Opera moderators since then.

It is sad to see this from Opera, as our extension when submitted or updated with Mozilla was approved within about an hour.

Well clearly Opera Dev team isn't interested.
And seems like its a complete waste of time

@pathankp Shortly after posting here and updating the Conversation area, we did get a reply from them and have submitted a new version version of the addon, now waiting on Opera's response again, we will see how long it takes this time.

We made extension, which shows visitor stat for any site in internet. Also you can find similar sites, keywords and sources of traffic.

But we have problem - no new version approval for more than month!!!

We made a lot of efforts to fix bugs. And our users waiting for fixes. How is it possible to contact or find moderators? Or somehow solve this sad issue?
