I submitted a fairly simple browser extension to every major browser web store (Firefox, Chrome, Edge, Opera).<p>- Firefox approve it almost immediately.<p>- Edge approved it after about a week.<p>- Chrome approved it after 2 weeks.<p>- Opera still hasn't approved it. (I'm not too concerned about Opera either, I was just curious how their process differed)<p>I selected "Unlisted" when submitting the Chrome extension because I thought I'd have some time to test installing it from the web store. After it was approved I went back to change it to "public" and it's now pending moderation again and has for about 2 days after that simple change. I made no other code or content changes.<p>This does not seem sustainable to me, I've worked on Chrome extension for years and this intense manual moderation is fairly recent. Does anyone know what's going on?
