Could you please consider using something other than recaptcha?

There's been several alternatives mentioned on HN over the past year. A quick search through my browser history revealed https://altcha.org/open-source-captcha/ as the most recent link I'd been to.

Just to say I have no experience of any of the "alternative" captchas, I just hate the one you're using.

Also please get your app up and running fast so we can use it for our vacation in early September, haha :-) Thank you.

Yes it can, when you realise the fact that I linked to it, and that anyone who cares enough about the subject can investigate and apparently instantly realise that my face-value interpretation of the tweet was entirely mistaken.

Then it should be obvious that it was an accident. If not, I would not have linked a source that instantly disproves what I said.

You're absolutely correct, I just took the tweet at face value, and did not bother to investigate the tweet, or any followups, at all.

I still haven't, and simply accept your statement that it's a joke, stated in irony.

I do not use twitter, and do not allow javascript. I've never clicked "Show thread" on Twitter. I had to jump through hoops to find the tweet, and to be able to copy+paste the text of it.

I just remembered it from a different thread here on HN where someone linked to an article that had a screenshot of it.

It's relevant because this wave of CoC attacks on open source projects was started by someone who has literally said "I can’t wait for the mass exodus from Linux now that it’s been infiltrated by SJWs."[1], in reference to the kernel adopting their CoC.

This person obviously does not care about the people who contribute to the kernel.

They wrote the "Contributor Covenant"[2], which is what the kernel (among tons of other projects) adopted.
