What on earth.. is this captcha some kind of joke?

I'm a human but it's not clear what the "challenge" even is that needs to be completed.

And after you get it wrong, it doesn't kick you out, it just flashes a toast message like "User failed captcha".

Twilight zone material.

Write the alphanumerics connected by a green line, i.e. connect (connected) the dots. I dunno, I immediately recognised it .

Took about 15 seconds to download the app and display the first few posts. Come back in another 2 years.

What is the final character? It looks like a backwards 7 or Cyrillic G.

Is there any settings to not make it look like new reddit? If I was building a new site I wouldn't copy the godawful empty space design they forced on everyone

I don't know why but this somehow taxes my CPU more than the official Reddit site, which is kind of impressive in a way.

The theme itself is a good Reddit replica, but I don't think IPFS has the necessary performance to run apps like these. Maybe it can live become a Lemmy frontend for the FOSS/fediverse crowd?
