Why cio should stop using ReCaptcha

[946]

I'd rather not copy paste so here's a comprehensive analysis about the usefulness of recaptcha (in addition to using hcaptcha on cio )

first of the hcap is just what ships with CF you cannot change this its the wat CF handles it. secondly recap has many great benefits of slowing down attacks it is not going anywhere and your thread is pointless.

Sometimes it takes me about 2 minutes trying to do the CAPTCHA it's so annoying

The article you point to basically says, "If you are running a small blog only your mom needs, hcaptcha is overboard"

You may find Hcaptcha annoying now, but you'll be more annoyed if they took away hcaptcha and all you got was a 404 page instead.

I'm not saying we shouldn't remove all captcha solutions but ReCaptcha is a pain in the ass whereas hcaptcha is better in terms of privacy of the users.

You didn't read what I said. Classic move.

I'm simply suggesting to remove ReCaptcha and keep hcaptcha (which, as you said, is shipped with cf)

Why use 2 captcha solutions instead of one? (and ReCaptcha is Google. Do I need to specify why it's bad for a board like this one?)

Hence, learn to read

Nope, Nope, Nope.
