I think that the site backend is having trouble keeping up with the load and the owner turned on Cloudflare’s Under Attack mode, thinking that this was a DDoS. This doesn’t look like the behavior I’ve seen when Cloudflare does it automatically. It’s smart enough to know that HN is not a DDoS.

A common question on the CF forum is a requests/second trigger for either enabling Under Attack mode or enabling a Firewall rule that triggers the full hCaptcha page. This is most likely what happened here.
[This is usually done by counting requests/second at the origin then using the CF API to enable the firewall rule or change the security level)

I have an add-on that removes referrer strings...but when I disabled that I get the same issue.
When I checked it on my phone (Android, mobile Firefox with the same add-ons), I was able to go fine.
