    I make videos, and as a part of those videos, I also release mods. Some times those mods take a long time to get approved, and I get a load of questions about why they can't use the mod yet. On top of this, I'm planning a holiday, and want to make the videos beforehand, and have the mods come out at the same time. I don't want to take a laptop with me, and have to upload a mod (along with rejections, or even knowing if I'll have internet access).

    So my suggestion/request is, when uploading a mod, can we please set when it'll become publicly visible?

    (I know that this is not 100% game related, but I think it's close enough, that it can fit here)

    I recall past instances when people have put the mod up with ample time before, and asked to have it released on April 1st or Christmas, so you could probably do that.

    You could DM one of the devs who approve mods to do it for you

    that seems problematic for timezones. I think this feature doesn't intrude too much into the application process, and on the back end, might not be the hardest to implement for all future uploads.
