I disagree. I've made two PRs [1] to that list to add domains where we assign subdomains to mutually non-trusting parties to ensure proper cookie security for these.
Both times the turn-around times were less than a week. In my first PR I even made a small mistake, because I did not read the instructions correctly. I promptly corrected it (< 5 minutes later) and the maintainer then merged my PR like 2 minutes later.
However we properly researched what the PSL does for us and what it does not before filing the PR. Also the domains do not hold anything other than customer data (similar to github.io).

- sascha_sl 5y agoA friend had 5 months turnaround time in 2019. There weren't any issues with the PR, in fact the maintainers have not commented on it and merged it directly. Just after 5 months. Meanwhile updates to existing entries were handled within hours. Since then the PSL has just been this thing that shouldn't be centralized if some people get preferential treatment in my mind. Happy to see they seem to have gotten better at getting through PRs in the timely manner, despite the sudden iOS surge that hit somewhat recently.
