It was banned on Reddit because it is racist, hatefull and spread Conspiracies.
In my new community I expect the exclution of racist communities. It is easy now
with defederation. Nazis can do whatever they want on their instances, but the
instances I want to be part of should not amplify their shit and flush it into
our timelines. The instance-admin of

not to defederate with them. The new TD may not be a success, the point is not
to give Nazis a platform like it is happening now. Fans of TD are racists. Where
are the instances that show face against racism? edit: to contact the admins:

All captchas are easy to crack because there are services that employ workers to solve captchas. You can buy packages of solves and they guarantee a specific accuracy rate and solve time. You submit via an API and get a result back in a few seconds. The result may be a string or it may include a mapping of how the user interacted with the app (which your client then emulates to fool the captcha app that it is receiving human input).
It’s just another electronic service provided by workers in low wage countries.
Captchas mitigate the issue slightly but they’re not a magic solution to bots. They can be the difference between the instance gaining 1,000 bot accounts in a day instead of 10,000,000 however.
