[QUOTE="SeriousHoax, post: 1091626, member: 78686"] I tested uBO Lite and AdGuard MV3 again and I have to say that they work really well, and most users will not notice any difference at all. They also in my brief test worked faster than MV2 extensions on most sites. I don't know why but it could be down to lack of rules, or it could be due to the fact that for MV2 adblockers, the blocking/modifying requests, etc was done the extension itself. The more optimized it is, the better and faster it was going to be. It seems with the declarative MV3 API for adblockers, the extension tells the browser what to do with network requests and blocking is done by the browser itself which is probably faster. With MV2 + DNS based blocking, anything not blocked by the extension would have been blocked by the DNS, with MV3 adblockers, DNS will block/redirect queries to 0.0.0.0 first before they are handled by the extension. So, DNS based blocking IMO is probably more important now. [/QUOTE]
