I’m getting really tired of “verify you’re not a bot” checks everywhere.

I understand these checks help prevent bots, but they seem to appear on so many websites now. Does anyone else find them frustrating?

    Tbh I never had to wait much with anubis, neither with my phone or computer; websites that make me wait a lot (like the arch wiki IIRC) then give ya access without having to do the check again;
    Also, Anubis unlike Cloudflare does not block me just cuz i have NoScript installed

      How modern is your phone? Anubis is killing my old Samsung A72 from 2020 - long waits, draining battery. On the laptop it’s less of an annoyance, I’ve got the laptop connected to mains anyway and it is fast enough.
