Perhaps a solution to this would be using an app like Mastodon Redirect? The app does the work of getting instance links so they can be automatically opened and there is also a variant called Lemmy Redirect for Lemmy. The catch is that both developers need to support it and users have to enable each instance manually or run through various commands to do them all at once.

I love Sync's theming and looks but Infinity for Lemmy is also looking promising.

Captchas also compromise your privacy. When you run across a Captcha, the technology might keep a permanent record of your phone or computer identity that can track everywhere you go online.

Humans also fiddle with a computer mouse or move around a touch screen phone in a “very human way,” Graham-Cumming said, so the ticketing computer might scope out how the cursor is moving.

Not sure why privacy is brought up if it seems to be equally as bad?

Hopefully this also makes it to ChromeOS given they leaned towards the "large screen devices" wording. Would make browsing easier.

Or when an app does tell you but it does it in one of those small tool tips that are only on screen for like half a second.
