Very long extension moderation process

Good news - My two extensions got published 32 hours after submitting updates. It may have helped that I submitted a Comment containing a short (~50 words) change summary with each one.

No, @iann0036, as I said at the beginning of my post, I think 32 hours is good. I think I got it good.

I have same problem. I already published in Chrome and FireFox. Everything is ok. But in Opera add-on I'm waiting moderation from November 2. Is it possible to speed up the process?

I am also facing this issue, I had submitted my add-on on Oct 30 and it's still awaiting moderation(Today is Nov 21). Can anyone please tell me when can I expect the approval of my add-on?

I'm waiting since 3 months now, submitted it at 11.09.17
How long does this take? At Mozilla my Addon was approved and published within 24 hours. -

The process s truly unbearable!
Perhaps Opera could adopt FF/MZ webext base?

Oh, that's nothing. My last approval was on June 2017.
Fast forward till February 2018, still no answer for any of the last 5 submissions.
I don't know how Opera selects the reviewers, but it's doing a very bad job at managing this situation. My only explanation is that even reviewers are not motivated at all to continue doing this.

If I didn't know better, one would think this was M$ the topic was about.

We have same issue with our addon WebRTC Leak Shield, which is a very basic extension. We have been waiting for over 1,5 month now. We got same extension enabled by Chrome Webstore AND Mozilla AMO in few minutes.
The thing is that this is not even our main extension. We have another VPN extension which has over 1,5 millions users on Chrome and Firefox, we would like to publish also for Opera. But seeing that such a basic extension needs a review time of over 1 month is insane. Our main extension depends on this extension and has more code. We are afraid that this will take over a year to get enabled. Can you guys please at least give a short feedback about the review time to be expected. -

A method to get addons improved faster is to not include funky and shady code in them!
Other than that yes the proval rate needs to fasten up.
All best addons are created for FF - and things such is this slow down doesn't do much to support folks at FF Addons to make them OPR compatible.

Same problem here. It's very disappointing to say the least, i am waiting about 2 months with absolutely no feedback whatsoever, Ridiculous. The same extension that i'm submitting is already on chrome and firefox stores. Frustrating.

I've made a simple button that opens Opera Flags menu. Sent it on 14th February and still waiting for approval. I'm not sure what exactly it's to check in it. It literally has like 5 lines of code and some icons lol...

I was submit first version of my extension 5 month ago, and it's still "awaiting of moderation"! Without any feedback at all! If it has some issues, why you don't give any feedback? I am very dissapointed in your support service.

I sent mine 14 days ago. It's literally a simple button that even a hamster could verify to be clean. Still not verified and listed. What kind of joke is this? No wonder Opera just doesn't get more market share when extensions ecosystem which is one of the most important things is such a joke. get your act together Opera.

It's more frustrating when you see popular extensions in the store that were updated very recently, few days ago. For a second it makes me think that they have higher priority, regardless of who was first in the approval queue.
