I have almost the same experience. I'm not running my own ISP and I'm not in a country known for originating DDoS attacks (Sweden), yet just using Firefox on Linux seems to be enough to be forced to click on traffic lights many times an hour. If I'm using Mullvad VPN that accelerates to almost every minute. CloudFlare claims to support privacy pass, but their extension implementing it seems to do absolutely nothing.

I'm in the same situation. Linux, Firefox, Sweden, with a residential IP that has been mine for weeks/months. Who's massively DDoS'ing with residential Telia IPs?!

You know, after reading your comment I decided to install and try chromium for few minutes and you're absolutely right. It did not ask captcha once. I opened the same websites where cloudflare always asks me for captcha on firefox so I thought this was common, after finding this out, I am feeling annoyed.

While Chrome users should feel a shiver going down their spine.

Same situation except for Linux: in Sweden, macOS, and Firefox.

The difference is: I can't get past Cloudflare's captcha for the past 2-3 years (on Firefox), have to use Chrome for the few sites I do need/want to see behind this stupid wall.

By now I've sent hundreds of feedback through their captcha feedback link, I keep doing it in the hopes at some point someone will see those...

Agreed. Same with Firefox on FreeBSD. Constant captchas. It identifies as Linux by the way (it seems to be compiled that way by the maintainers) which is probably better (a 2% desktop marketshare OS vs a 0.01% one is probably better here)
