I wonder what is different between your online fingerprint and mine, in generalities.

I have not seen a captcha in months if not longer, I don't remember doing one anytime recently.

I have browser and network level ad and malware blockers in place and sometimes come upon sites I cannot access at all, but never unusable ones due to no captcha.

But, I also have a Google account linked to chrome that stays logged in, and I wonder if that allows me to avoid them.

IME, using Firefox (with or without a Google account) is a sure fire way to get shown a ReCaptcha.
