I’m not convinced CAPTCHA is the right long-term solution anymore.

Most low-effort bots can already bypass basic CAPTCHA, while it mostly adds friction for legitimate users. HN’s strength is the quality of discussion, and that seems better protected by behavior-based signals (account age, posting patterns, community feedback) rather than one-time verification challenges.

Can you name one "low-effort bot" that can bypass cloudflare captcha?
