I encountered this for the first time today while attempting to read something on archive.today.

I confirmed that decoding the qrcode using a computer and following the URL it contains is insufficient; the error it gave directed me here which is what the linked screenshot is of.

The old type of captcha remains available too, for now:

    The tile select ones never work for me. I just click random squares until the fading one comes up. And that’s only if I really care about whatever link it is. hCaptcha and arkoslabs are so much better

      I regularly use two websites which use recaptcha, one is necessary for work and the other is no-ip. The work one is annoying, it’s almost every other day that I have to go through it.
