MODERATORS
 
  • I make websites
  • If someone is banned twice (two accounts) I want it to take them more than 5min and a VPN to make a 3rd account
  • I'm okay with extreme solutions, like requiring everyone to have a Yubikey-or-similar physical key
  • I really hate the trend of relying on a phone number or Google capcha as a not-a-bot detection. Both have tons of problems
  • but spam (automated account creation) is a real problem

What kind of auth should I use for my websites?

If I remember correctly I saw that Proton mail (or was it Yandex translate ?) created their own reCAPTCHA, where you'd have to slide one piece outside of a puzzle into the gap of the puzzle. Neat.

Tor browser user here, btw.

It’s sad they haven’t made it so anyone can use it

Yeah, I find the puzzle sliding JavaScript captchas the best as a user. Cognitively better than "training neural networks to recognise protestors", and still fast enough that it doesn't feel like a forced ad. Reliability might however vary a lot between implementations.

“training neural networks to recognise protestors”

Good one

Yandex one is correctly recognizing different symbols and tapping them in order. It was rather violent when it showed at any other click when I used it with adblocks and denied tracking while searching for images.
