Designed in the early 2000s to stop rogue bots, we could at least justify the infuriation when they did their job properly.

    With Firefox recently captcha always fails lately. So bots can get by it but I can’t.

      Same here. It’s infuriating. It is specifically Cloud Flare CAPTCHA that I have issues with, but Google’s also take longer than it used to. I pretty much always have to select the images containing traffic lights or something, and then you see how bad some of them have gotten.

      I haven’t experienced that. Do you remember a site so I can try it out? Lol

        Logging into my Roku account from my phone for example did not work. The login for my internet provider and power company gave issues too. Was able to login with google chrome with no captcha issues
