I have some AdBlock and Anti-Tracker stuff configured. For each single login, discord makes me solve 2 captchas, enter my password twice and click on an emailed link. Fuck them.

On mumble however, I start the client and it just works. Also, it instantly reconnects should the connection break.

This gave me a giggle, perfect sentiment IMHO. Discord is basically saying "fuck you" at least 4 times each time you login, and the only appropriate response absolutely should be "no, fuck you"

I think I've had to login to Discord probably twice over the last four years

It asks me the same even without adblock or tracker-blocker, because my IP address changes often. An annoying nightmare really when you "need" something from a Discord chat quickly. I stopped using it, insist on people emailing me or chatting on Telegram.

Has anyone found a good solution for paying for captcha solutions in your browser? I'm getting tired of solving captchas, and would pay a decent amount of money to be able to click one button and have it just solve it for me.

Can take a bit of time, but needs to be non-clunky.

I've made a similar experience with Discords login flow. It's definitely broken. Fair enough.

Do you open it on Firefox with an ad blocker etc? If yes it may come from reCaptcha and not from Discord itself (I had the same issues on websites that use reCaptcha). However, if you use the discord app you may not need to solve a captcha.

Unless Google is employing hackers to secretly integrate reCaptcha into other apps, it is coming from Discord no matter who creates the captchas

It's probably from ReCaptcha, but Discord is the one deciding to use that service to protect their logins so they are ultimately responsible.
