I use Orbot, and every browser I have tried, Firefox and forks, Chromium, Webviews, these links give me a captcha that cannot be completed.

Does anyone else have this issue?

Please link to source in posts and UnTrackMe/UrlCheck/Leon will re-direct. I appreciate that posters give archive links but I cannot read them.

For some of my browsers I do spoof the user agent, for others it is stock. Mull has Privacy Resist Fingerprint enabled for instance, this happens in all the browsers I have loaded. Mull, Smart Cookie Web Preview, Fennec, Iceraven, Cromite, Mulch, Fulguris, Monocles, Privacy, FOSS, DDG.

Just try a default Firefox. Though if you want to use TOR anyways, why not just use TOR browser? It's the only browser where the starting conditions are reasonably anonymous.

With Orbot I can use it across everything. Using TOR browser with Orbot does not seem to work.
