What issue are you facing with Capchas at the moment?

It is super annoying. For example every time I visit a site implementing Google reCAPTCHA I am asked to select cars or signs on photographs.

As a dev that cares about UX I wondered whether there are better solutions or ideas out there.

Google also offers "checkboxes" that measure your mouse movement to see if you're a human. Maybe those are more to your tastes?

That's the same service. If Google's confidence that you are human is not high enough, they don't show the checkbox, they show the "click all the images that are [label]" test instead.
