On the Captcha system that Dread uses when you begin visiting : Dread | Torhoo darknet markets

So, I'm wondering, what's the deal with the captcha system? I've seen it used on a couple other onion services, so is it FOSS and self-hostable? If so, where would I be able to find more information on it? Thanks in advance.

Was the name 'Endgame' stolen from the movie Avengers Endgame? :D
Really cool movie by the way, also the captcha!

I don't know much about the tech specs but captcha does my bloody head in, literally despite a sharp mind and healthy vision I manage to bungle one of the weird ones they chuck in lol. If you think about it, there is a limit to how obscure a pic should be because there will be reached an inflection point after which the human application of critical interpretation will diminish rather than increase. A numbers game is the very thing a bot-proofer needs to protect against

It's not very easy for us to come up with captchas that are difficult for machines, but have a high entropy. We have to do it all without javascript. Which puts us in an even more difficult spot. Endgame is setup so that new captchas can be easily dropped in when we need them. If anyone has a good suggestion for a captcha that works better we would look into using it.

Yeah Endgame - personally, I dont like the knew style letter capcha but you can use a clock with the current endgame git.
