I agree, but I don't think images should be relied on as the primary communicator. I have seen far too many forums/websites/docs with broken images because the host went down. That and archivers are more likely to fail at saving images. Explain it using text and give a reference image to further display the point.

You don't have to... if the project you want to use has a good setup process. Otherwise you'll be scouring Docker docs, GitHub issues, and StackOverflow for years.
I've found them to be pretty clear usually. Half-formed words at start/end I just ignore. Either way, even on Firefox with uBlock and all the rest, audio captchas have always passed me first try even if I think I got it wrong. I don't like posting about it in-case they tighten it up after it gets more users.
There was a short period a few years ago after the Quantum update that I would have partially agreed, because Firefox's renderer was much smoother. But Chrome seems to have caught up, because it's been much faster every time I test something in it in the yesrs since.
Which is invisible to users, meaning they can ignore it or handwave it with "I haven't got anything to hide".
Play a match of Valorant. EVERYONE has skins. There are whales that buy every $100 bundle sure, but even the regular players often end up buying a $20 skin or $50 bundle pretty often.
For me? Recall. I'm ordering an SSD to dual boot Linux off of and ween myself off Windows as much as I can. Probably can't remove it as long as I want to play games* with friends, but I'd be happy to have my day to day be less awful.
* Before anyone says Proton, Wine, etc, I mean the awful multiplayer rootkits like Valorant.
Oh god, you reminded me. I had a run in with this recently because my parents got new laptops. 1TB hard drive, should be plenty right? NO! My mom had 15GB of files in her home folders and One Drive was whining constantly to pay them for more space.
It was about an hour of debugging to keep the files safe, extract One Drive from the home folder locations because it had dug in like a virus, and then (after 20 online searches and scouring forums) click the specific toggle in the specific menu to disable One Drive so it would use local files.
I paid for a 1TB computer, why are you forcing me to use your shitty online-only limited-space shit show. Fucks sake.
It's similar, but not the same. Most Linux distros require you to download a third-party program that people've never heard of. Windows gives you an all-in-one program from their official website, thus it's easy to trust. Arguably Linux's solution is better because you can use that program for multiple purposes. That and I think the trust factor is overblown as the distro will recommend the software and it's not hard to find people vouching for it, so if you trust the distro you may as well trust the program.
Training users to click on this shit is the same reason people wipe their desktop by ignoring "Yes I know what I am doing" warnings.
Well a good indicator is if I have to check the source code of a packaged program to understand what something does, the documentation is not good enough. And yes I've had to do this far too much.
