No way am I paying for a v3 at this point. V2 is very laggy on my system. My repeated posts about my issues with proper documentation, along with other users backing up my issues, have fallen on deaf ears. I'm not going to pay for software that isn't properly maintained
Nobody from Stardock is talking about releasing a V3 right now!
I am not seeing any reports from you about laggy issues. That's something that would need more information as it could be something specific to your use case and laggy can mean different things to different people.
My advice would be to create a new thread with your issues in v2 having first ensured you are on the latest version of Start11. Then support can work with you on seeing what the problem is.
We really are interested in fixing things reported, often going out of our way to enhance the software to work with other apps for example and taking on user requests.
