Proposal: a unified developer appeal on Add-on review times

Re: Very long extension moderation process

This growing thread (500+ comments) shows a critical community pain point. As developers, the collective trust and time are on the line. Would fellow add-on creators be open to a coordinated, respectful appeal to Opera? Perhaps a shared document summarizing the impact, or a polite tag of community managers in a single follow-up post? A unified, professional voice from builders might be the catalyst needed for a systemic fix.

If we can't upload new add-ons from the Opera add-on store, why does the add-on store exist?

I understand @erdinc53 but seems there is something with your addon because our calculator Calcatom has been approved this afternoon.

Can you share your journey with us maybe someone can help?

We should appreciate Opera moderators' work in checking the source code.

@Nearmelab They kept my 50-line(!) code add-on on hold for a year. I got annoyed too and deleted it.

I think we all seek benefits and Opera has valuable initiatives by providing all these tools for free.

I don't work for them, @erdinc53 . Just in case we can help I invite you to share addons details maybe we can give feedback on what is missing in all sides.

I think in case we provide something valuable and clean enough for end users why Moderators will omit it.
