m7 is firm on not switching it off though: https://saidit.net/s/whatever/comments/cm00/you_know_what_the_worst_part_of_this_cloudflare/15vii

I'm spending probably half-hour per day on those fucking captchas :( (using Tor)

I can never finish a captcha through tor.

Well, works for me, I'm here for 1.5 years, using only Tor. But yeah, there was a period (6 months ago? a year?), when it was pretty bad, you could try for 10-20 minutes and still couldn't get past check. Now it's 2-5 cycles of reloading at most (but it's once per each fucking 5 minutes!)

UPD I also do "New Tor circuit for this site" a lot, maybe you didn't try that.

If it doesn't work, I'll change exit nodes, and might get one. But it's slowwww.

I tried it for reddit, and any new account gets instantly shadowbanned, and you will have to appeal through the lesser used admin's appeal panel and they will lift it, but at that point, you have to karma whore immediately to bump it up to about 100 karma, because just a few downvotes gets you shadowbanned again.

I was told anything that isn't Chrome or Edge would block the site that badly. Chrome maybe, but there's nothing in the world that can get me to use Edge; literally the worst browser ever made. I'd sooner use Internet Explorer than Edge, or Bing. Besides using Chrome or Edge, nothing else can improve performance.
