I doubt that any list would have 100% agreement from Xenforo admins. For example, there are one or two that seem to be very popular but that I had less than stellar experience with.
Egregious violations of ethics, security, or copyright will get banned from this forum by Xenforo.
For the rest, look at their reviews, not just the average rating but also the reasons given for any low ratings, and read the discussions about a coder's addons to get an idea of reliability and support.

Thanks. I always do, but still would like to know others opinions too. I have purchased addons from some developers, which I think are the most popular and trustable on forum.
Reading reviews sometimes might not be true. Nowadays everything can be sold, even these reviews

True, but if it’s found that a developer is going that, the XF staff would step in and remove the reviews.
At the moment in my opinion and experience the most trustable are @ThemeHouse (they do go extra mile to sort the issue) @Bob , @Siropu , @DragonByte Tech (a bit too expensive when comes for copyright removals and months for support are only 3) , I found them really focused on customer service which it's great and feels you get back for what you have paid. I have purchased from others, happy with plugins but not as much with customer service.
Is there others coders which are worth to check their addons and consider for future investment?
Thanks, I do have some of their addons too, weird did not had any issues (hopefully won't have any).

You can check the ones from @Ozzy47 too. He listens to critics/suggestions, supports his free/paid add-ons and takes over the maintenance of some developers like Snog.

That would be a bad idea.If only the ratings on add-ons summarised up to be on their owner/developer too.
Sometimes am addon will work well for you but another addon by the same developer will not, maybe because it conflicts with another addon by a different developer.

Rated/reviewed appropriately for failure to address/resolve ... exactly the sort of scoring that aggregated up to a developer would help reveal.

The worst treatment I've had has been people telling me that they weren't willing to spend extra time to make an add-on more convenient. That's mild and understandable. I don't hold that against anyone. People have limited time in their lives.
I'm using add-ons from:
Communication -
No Communication -
I use more of @Xon's add-ons (about 16) than anyone else by a huge margin, @BassMan and @Ozzy47 being the next most with 5 add-ons each.
The vast majority of the add-ons which I use serve a solid purpose, though there are certainly a few which could vanish.

I'm still on 2.1.8, but I have no reason to believe there'll be an issue.
I will be better to wait for stable version, and TH won't do any upgrades till XF will release a stable version.
