Long time Firefox user and HNer here.

I've at least been "captchaed" in Firefox. While being logged in with my Gmail account from 2005.

I've been "captchaed" with Chrome, so I'm not sure the anecdotes amount to much.

That's interesting and useful to know and I decide to believe you.

BTW: Yes, I absolutely noticed that you said this above:

My point is, unless the claims of the others are outrageous or we have something very specific to point at, I don't think voicing these kind of thoughts do much good.
