I would guess that the amount of people who care about which keyboard layout they use, don't use the local keyboard layout, and require appropriate labeling of keys (i.e. don't tou…

I still wonder how that detection thing works. My custom Firefox setup with requests proxied through Tor passes as the TBB, but copying the same request as a curl command somehow d…

Yeah after years of suffering from reCAPTCHA I'm somewhat thankful for hCaptcha. It is still annoying (especially Cloudflare's integration which seems barely compatible with the To…
