how? do you just allow all cookies/scripts/xhr on your umatrix? i'm on a similar config and I get captchas far often than any other users on the same network for some reason.


I use the uMatrix plugin to automatically allow what’s required for ReCaptcha, that tends to work. I do get the annoying picker sometimes and have an AI extension to solve it for me, but it’s relatively rare, like 1 out of 5 times max (I generally don’t see RC that often).

No idea how I’d compare to others on my Network, that’d only be my wife and as a Linux user she’d probably get more than me with Windows ;)


I thought uMatrix got abandoned?


Yeah (though when it broke thanks to an ff update, a fix was released and then it was archived again). But it still works, and I use it because it has a vastly better interface for domain/type blocking than uBo.


Got a link to that plugin btw?


It’s integrated in uMatrix. I’s the puzzle symbol. You can only activate it, if uMatrix already detects recaptcha.
