Like I posted on another thread, if ZOS completely removed add-ons without providing considerable UI improvements to replace those add-ons, the mass exodus of people leaving from the PC side would probably kill the game and a bunch of people at ZOS would be looking for new jobs. I don’t see it happening.

I'll sit back and wait for the rumor-mongers, nit-pickers and conspiracy theorists to read Gina's comments and draw from them first that she didn't say they weren't planning on banning addons, merely that it wouldn't be in the next patch, and second that she didn't say that the "API guy" was well and still with the company, just that he wasn't dead !

I was actually hoping there was some truth to this. There's definitely some add-ons that should be banned.

I did. Reported in-game and started a thread about it. Nothing happened.
thank god an official response. For the record I am against a blanket ban on addons. Thats like the whole vape thing. 9 die and suddenly all vape products are banned when something else is allowed and causes far worse problems.
Now, I would be okay with ZOS vetting addons. But that would take resources I'm sure they don't have.

The bigger question is maybe - assuming performance will be fixed - if getting ridd of add ons would be worth it if we get crossplay in return...and i do personally think yes...
Crossplay - being able to play with everybody would be fantastic and zos has shown a willingness to incorporate more tools or updates to improve quality of life (Which they certainly should do more of especially for console, like sorting and searching for things etc.)
They've said numerous times including this year they're not planning crossplay for ESO.
