I tried updating my extension on the webstore twice in the past 48h, both times rejected with the same reason:
Violation reference ID: Yellow Zinc
Violation: Description provided is insufficient to understand the functionality of the item.
Although the first time I would concede the description was a bit unclear (it is the same one currently in the published version), the second time around I wrote a description similar to what similar extensions have and were updated recently with success as well.
There are no clear indications on what they consider to be insufficient, or examples of what something sufficient would be, so this is proving to be an extremely frustrating and stressful endeavor.
At this point I am left with no options other than to do a literal copy of a description of a similar extension like enhancer for youtube that is on the web store in hopes of finally being accepted.
And this was my second description attempt that got rejected:
Iridium is back with v2.0!
Enjoy a more personalized experience on YouTube™ with Iridium, an extension packed with multiple features that allows you to tailor the website look, feel, and behavior tuned to your taste, such as controlling nuisances by managing ads, blocking channels, and disabling shorts, automate tedious tasks by enforcing your preferred video quality and speed of choice, as well as disable autoplay, 60fps, and loudness normalization, enhance navigation by going to your subscriptions when clicking on the YouTube™ logo and automatically go to a default tab when clicking on a channel name, and so much more.
