    My option: I couldn't care less, so no "countermeasures" will be taken.

    I can't select an option yet as I do not yet have a plan, but I don't think Firefox will be a solution as to my understanding they will implement this as well.

    I wouldn't want to add the "I don't know" option as well.
    Because ultimately most of us don't know.;)
    You can vote for the most likely option.
    Or even more choices that are allowed.:thumb:

    When the time comes I may explore the cost of an AdGuard subscription, assuming that it won't be affected.

    I will bolster uBlock Origin with other extensions if it's weakened by this Manifest thing. I think the uBO dev is hardcore enough that he will do his almighty best.

    But again, still a waiting game so it's status quo on here.

    They will, but not implemented as strict as Chromium. :)

    I’m already with Firefox so no other countermeasures.

    So am I, so another reason for me not to take any countermeasures.

    I just did that. Tbh for me "no countermeasures" sounds more like: "I'm ok with what manifest V3 means and just life with it". While I'm clearly for the opposite. That being said I voted :D
    Maybe an: "Other countermeasures" would be nice so it would be more general.

    My answers:

    1. I integrate the decreased performance of uBlock Origin (if that will be the case) with DNS
    2. I replace uBlock Origin with AdGuard Extension (which now seems to have better Manifest v3 support)
    3. Switch to Firefox
    In order of prevalence.

    Has anyone changed their opinion?

    I personally also need a Chromium-based browser installed.

    DNS network filtering may be interesting but cosmetic filtering is certainly needed.
    My hopes for continuing to use Edge are in the improved development of uBlock Origin Lite.:thumb:
    I am not interested in AdGuard Desktop and probably the extension as well.

    I cannot stand,at least for now, the layout of Brave browser.
    If I am forced to install Brave on my pc as well,certainly my default browser will be Firefox.

    This is premature. uBlock Light is still in its early development and will certainly catch up until MV3 will be enforced.
    That's the best countermeasure :thumb:
