This is one of the things which is frustrating about Mozilla. I love that they stand for open protocols, free software and user privacy, but I don't love what they prioritize.

Reviewing extensions is critical to their user-experience. If this really doesn't have an team of paid staffers, that's unfortunate.

It has paid staff and volunteers. More volunteers than paid staff IIRC. Reviewing stuff correctly takes time :-( sorry.

This can be mitigated by having more volunteers (or paid staff (or both)) to help though.
