Google's Captcha in Firefox vs. in Chrome

The user is complaining about the slow CSS animations. It's definitely a bug though not something they did on purpose. I remember having the same issue on Chrome as well.

IIRC, it is something they do on purpose, to make it clear to the user something is happening while rate-limiting challenges given to the user.

Oh no Google ReCaptcha doesn't work that way. In case of rate limiting, they will just throw an error. It's probably some clever JS or CSS that got a bug in it. Here's the official thread on GH: https://github.com/google/recaptcha/issues/268

Disclaimer: We built a solution at SerpApi.com to solve those offline using ML. Timing of solving doesn't matter. It will be odd that they do that just to annoy user when it's not a technical limitation.

They’re slow because it’s live-challenging two or more recaptcha users at once with an unknown image, right?

It's not a bug. Its part of a patent Google holds designed at frustrating access for bots.
