I’m getting really tired of “verify you’re not a bot” checks everywhere.
I understand these checks help prevent bots, but they seem to appear on so many websites now. Does anyone else find them frustrating?

Sorry, I mean the automatic one like this one:
(Sorry for the Italian)
Oh, as long as it never displays a page that requires user interaction, it works. If you go to rblind.com directly, you’ll find I’m doing something similar. I didn’t use anubis because of some controversy about the logo, and the logo has no alt text for me to judge if I care about whatever upsets people. So I just decided not to use it.
I’il check out! Anyway, if you are curious: the anubis logo is just a cartoon of a girl with cat ears and a magnifying glass, nothing too crazy beside it looking “unprofessional”
Agreed re: the logo. And she has a maple leaf symbol on her white hat because she’s Canadian.
The creator also has a paid version where you can change the logo. The creator is a chill person.
Minor nit-picky correction: She’s a jackal, not a cat. So she’s technically more like a foxgirl, instead of a catgirl.
Because Anubis is the jackal-headed Egyptian god that weighs your guilt at the end of your life. And if your guilt weighs less than a feather, you’re allowed to enter the Egyptian equivalent of heaven.
The reference being that the service is “weighing” the users, and only allowing the guilt-free ones (humans) to access heaven (the site).
Ah, good to know. Based on the level of fury from the people complaining, I’d assumed it was pornographic.
She’s in a grey hoodie and red/pink skirt (image ends above her knees, so you don’t see much of the skirt). She would look at home in a children’s animated series. “Unprofessional”, but not scandalous.
Thanks! I’m happy with what I hacked up for our Lemmy, but if it ever stops working I’ll probably move. Although, using something that’s not the number one most popular solution might actually be an advantage, I guess.
