This is why once I switched to FF I also switched to DuckDuckGo
On a different note, this also makes it difficult to use such websites if you block google domains in your adblocker for non-Google sites.
While relatable, this is just a low effort post more suited for Twitter or Reddit. For a fair comparison OP would need to use clean browser profiles on fresh IPs. Like this it is just fan-service for Google Captcha victims (like me).
While filing taxes, on several occasions I had to just give up and try again after several hours because the Captcha won't let me pass through and after several attempts Turbo Tax will throw an error - to come back later.
It was literally a Nightmare

How can you have a fresh IP which isn't in your control?
I was going through the same ordeal as a Firefox user, so I've made Buster to solve challenges and reclaim some of that lost time: https://github.com/dessant/buster If you're a developer, please consider replacing reCAPTCHA on your site with an alternative. reCAPTCHA discriminates against people with disabilities and those who seek privacy, and it gaslights you into thinking you did not solve the challenge correctly,…
"Your computer or network may be sending automated queries. To protect our users, we can't process your request right now".
Is there a solution for this?
FYI. Title is misleading. This experience has nothing to do Firefox vs Chrome. Result is because of 3rd party cookie and tracker blocking. I had same and even worse (I was not able to get through captcha) experience on chrome itself because I have 3rd party cookies disabled and couple privacy oriented extensions running.
One of the things, if it ever gets there, would be for the anti-trust probe, if any, to look at how Google shares data between its browser, Chrome, and it's other services.
The Google captcha enrages me. Why should I train their stupid AI?

I've recently had issues with buster where Google detects it, giving me this error: "Your computer or network may be sending automated queries. To protect our users, we can't process your request right now". Is there a solution for this?
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Yes, it's the most obvious internet rage trigger. But I can't figure out why they make a 'delay'? Why not just show the next dam image?
To make it more expensive for bots to try this at scale, obviously. Unfortunately it's making it more expensive for humans too.
