In closing out our original post about Marketplace Suggestions, I said:

We are listening to feedback on usefulness, frequency, and ways to improve extension recommendations. As with all thing open-source, they are subject to change.

We are committed to working with our community, including the plugin review team, and responding to feedback. Just as a reminder, the Marketplace Suggestions feature was developed in the open in a long-running feature branch/PR which was merged to master a month ago. It was mentioned in the Beta 1 Release notes, and was testable during Beta1 and prior on master.

It is often only when the release candidate comes out that we get certain kinds of feedback. It’s an important stage in the development cycle when we want and expect input. With the 3.6 RC1 live, we received specific feedback that we could take into consideration and act on. Thanks to the developers, end users, and the plugin review team for all their help.

See all the details of updates and fixes in the 3.6 RC2 release post.

Also, we continue to be in contact with the plugin review team to ensure the suggestions are in accordance with the guidelines. There is a live conversation on the definition of suggestion/advert dismissibility. We will participate in that conversation and honor the outcomes.
