Big Drama Llamas...

User @th3raid0r@tucson.social posted a call to pressure the devs to return CAPTCHA support before v.0.18 arrives on the community !technology@beehaw.org.

Mixed response from users and beehaw admins.

Lemmy issue #2922 is where it was removed 2 weeks ago due to its effectiveness being limited, Lemmy issue #3200 is the issue where it is suggested to have it return. Repo maintainers are somewhat perceptive to reverting it but would be more willing to accept a full implementation of graphical CAPTCHA over the previous version.

Discussion welcome here.
