    Oh man the IMDB site is a nightmare to run to me. Didn’t they also removed user reviews and changed the score for shows that was getting made fun off for being bad?

    It's alright, but sadly, there's no trivia. :(

    I don't see Google's reCaptcha listed here. That one is the most egregious by far.

    Actually, CF's one is the worst one of all. Not only does it just accept 3-4 "official" browsers (mainstream google chrome (chromium), edge (chromium), safari (pre-chromium), and firefox (chromium-copy). Anything else, even if a derivate of those, are on their own), but they control the absolute majority of captcha/bot challenge protected sites. They also recently fired 1100 employees and replaced them with AI.

    googles is still pretty bad, though, yeah.

    YouTube in incognito is borderline impossible to use. Gives you shorts by default, hiding the video results beneath them. If you switch to videos only, they're completely different results. After a handful of suggestions it just starts making recommendations for whatever it thinks you want.

  • @ gaijinkaiju:
    Also the "sponsored" ads you get on mobile. It's inundated with gambling ads, sexy singles, or those ai slop shirts

    Youtube search has always been notoriously awful. Unless you type the exact video title in search, it'll pull up all this stupid shit, AND there's no way to filter out videos with a certain or a vague date range past "this year".

    "With the latest Google reCAPTCHA upgrade, if you’re on a Windows PC, Linux machine, or pretty much anything that isn’t a smartphone, you may soon be asked to scan a QR code with your phone to prove you’re human. Not just any phone, though. It has to be an Apple device or a Google-certified Android device."

    and with an android smartphone you need to allow google play "services" telemetry.

    You should post these news stories as threads, Vendor. lol As to this, this does require that a site voluntarily use Google's captcha service. Thankfully, I have seen it being used less and less. Even if I see it though, I am not using that shit unless it's for a government service or other that already knows my personal details.

    Frankly, it's easier to just post it here than find the exact correct sub-sub forum to post it in..

    Anyone else, feel free to re-post them as threads.

    Perhaps, but the chatbox is not suited for long form discussion nor does it save conversations of course.
