We switched a couple of months ago. Integration wasn't more or less difficult, works alright with our test suite. Some users feedback "Why do I have to identify boats?" but otherwise we found no difference number of blocks or user behavior.

#4Worth noting that this title is primarily due to Cloudflare having switched to them from ReCAPTCHA, and Cloudflare is... well, relatively popular, to say the least.
I'm curious what kind of data may exist on the experience of switching for larger providers; do the users like it? how much more/less time do they spend solving? do they care, let alone even notice that it's not Google's ReCAPTCHA?
Regardless, as ReCAPTCHA is not only terribly annoying but also built for surveillance from the ground up, I still view this as a good improvement.

Personally I find it much more difficult than recaptcha. The tests themselves aren't much worse but since I have a Google account HCaptcha shows up more frequently.

Far, far superior to reCaptcha from a user's perspective using Tor. I can solve a few puzzles with hCaptcha and I know I'll get through and see the content. With reCaptcha I might solve 3 puzzles and then get denied anyway, or I might solve 10 puzzles with no end in sight and give up.

Honest question: How do you view it as an improvement? The same data is being shared, and the only difference is that Cloudflare isn't immediately behaving in the same evil ways as Google. But once you concentrate power in an entity, perhaps bad things might happen?
... If there was an on-premise captcha implementation that actually worked, that would be great.

Unlike Google, hCaptcha isn't running an ad network "on the side" of their bot management business :) joking aside, hCaptcha is an extremely privacy-conscious operation, Google is not.

I don't like it because Buster doesn't work on it.
Also since only cloudflare uses it, and I dislike cloudflare, I have this irrational hatred of it.

On the other hand, many Tor users disable Javascript. Out of curiosity, does anyone know a good CAPTCHA that doesn't use JS?
