I remember using it before it had a captcha



There was a chaotic neutral time in my life where I used it daily for an extended period of time; and then found myself out of that rut and would only go back to see unhinged takes on a particular current event that I was interested in seeing the hivemind's thoughts on. Each and every time I went back, and tried to contribute to a thread, the Captchas and the CloudFlare checks were increasingly intrusive.

During this election, I completely gave up even trying to participate and just lurked.

I tried to post and it gave me a 900 second cooldown, not even on vpn. I too remember the good old days when there was no capcha.
