"The number of submitted packages to EGO is growing every month and we see more and more people joining the extensions community to create their own extensions. Some days, I spend more than 6 hours a day reviewing over 15,000 lines of extension code and answering the community. In the past two months, we have received many new extensions on EGO."
"This is a good thing since it can make the extensions community grow even more, but there is one issue with some packages. Some devs are using AI without understanding the code. This has led to receiving packages with many unnecessary lines and bad practices. And once a bad practice is introduced in one package, it can create a domino effect, appearing on other extensions. That alone has increased the waiting time for all packages to be reviewed."
Submitted packages to EGO are increasing monthly as more people join the extensions community to create extensions. A reviewer sometimes spends more than six hours a day reviewing over 15,000 lines of extension code and answering the community. Many new extensions arrived on EGO in the past two months. Some developers use AI to generate code without fully understanding it. AI-generated code frequently contains unnecessary lines and bad practices. Introduced bad practices can spread to other extensions, creating a domino effect. The spread of poor-quality code increases review workload and lengthens waiting times for package review.
