What is the main reason for you to hesitate in accepting v3?
Many reasons, and how I found my way here looking for a v2 answer.
One is v3 drastically slowing down a website as v3 is used/ran on every single page as part of the v3 algorithm. If you are somehow successfully circumventing that so it is on just the form page I have no idea, but do not see how it can continue if so.
See the other topic on your Contact Form 7 – “A GTMetrix Test: Is Google reCAPTCHA v3 Slower Than v2?” – or elsewhere online.
There are also other reasons such as the need for a site privacy policy update just for it’s new snooping, but the slower service and v3 messing around on every single page/post is more than enough for me.
I spent effort in the past improving a WP site of mine for 100 milliseconds+ speed boosts, let along the 1/2 sec or more v3 adds.
To add insult to injury the v3 does not seem to stop spammers see the other post – “ReCAPTCHA does not work, with the Contact Form7 update”.
Hopefully you will rethink the mandatory v3 stance on your useful plugin.
