Interesting. I use Firefox on everything at home, usually windows or android, and I rarely get those. Could it be one of your extensions? Proxy?

You likely have a "better" IP address than OP. I have old DSL and new LTE, on the LTE I get captchas all the time, on DSL my experience was the same AS yours.

Yeah I considered that too, but it only happens in one browser.

No proxy. I've tried disabling the likely extensions with no change. It's not the builtin anti-tracking stuff, either.

"Bypass paywalls clean" caused this for me.

Not yet. Firefox also has a troubleshooting mode where it disables all your extensions, etc., but keeps your profile. I'm going to try that next.
