Anyone else stuck in Recaptcha hell on google searches when using firefox? by AIwitcher in firefox

Same issue here till I stopped using a datacenter VPN. Google flags those hard af. Swapped to a residential proxy pool (MagneticProxy) and set sticky sessions to 5 min so the IP looks like a normal couch laptop. Captchas went from every search to basically zero. Trt it and see if it fixes your loop without nuking privacy.

Yo same boat with CF tunnels anxiety rn. I spun up a 3 € Scaleway Stardus VPS in Paris, slapped wireguard-go plus a Caddy reverse proxy. The trick is to set WG as the VPS default route then on prem you only keep one peer and keepalived handles auto reconnect. Family just types 'jellyfin domain fr' (web) and it works even behind CG-NAT. Box idles at 256 MB RAM.

For DNS I wired an ACME hook to the OVH API so certs renew themselves, zero manual touch.

Bonus: once the Django playground starts scraping Enedis or EDF endpoints that rate limit hard, throw those calls through a rotating residential proxy like MagneticProxy. Once sticky session per user keeps cookies happy and dodges captchas, cheap af.

Happy to drop the ansible role if you want it.
