My biggest pain as a Tor user is having to fill out 10 captchas a day to do anything. Hcaptcha and recaptcha those that ship them make me furious in general for punishing people for privacy.

I sympathize, but have you considered using cloudflare
captchas as an accidental content moderation service by ignoring any
site that requires them? If I disable tor as an experiment for any
length of time, I find that the average quality of material I read
diminishes. Combine tor usage with disabling javascript, and you're
well on your way to an information diet from technically adept sources
that respect their readers.

Vast majority of traffic from Tor IPs is abuse, which makes it challenging to deliver a good experience for the handful of normal users mixed in there.
You might be interested in one approach we've been working on for this: https://www.hcaptcha.com/privacy-pass

That does not help me on mobile, or in disposable Qubes I browse in to keep totally anonymous. At best I could see using fido2 taps with random identifiers to prove I am physically touching a hardware authenticator even if the ID is a throw away.
