It could because captchas on Plebbit are just arbitrary JavaScript, but Esteban has explained many times that this kind of captcha is useless for actually preventing spam. I found this with a quick search: https://github.com/plebbit/whitepaper/discussions/2#discussioncomment-2562316
You can right click a successful request in your browser's network devtools to copy the request and all its parameters (headers, cookies, querystring, user-agent, ...)
start with mimicking the browsers behavior the best you can, then you can narrow down what the deciding parameters are.
I've never needed selenium etc. for the web scraping I do, it's often sufficient to just use fetch() in js or requests in python.
i once even had to bypass a captcha from cloudflare, i just solved it manually and the token was valid for a month or so
Brave, which use it to filter it's Leo AI search, explain it very well. https://search.brave.com/help/pow-captcha
Here, you can try a POW captcha, it's very straight forward, and you don't even notice your CPU is doing some computer calculations. Usually, when it comes to POW captchas, you can change the difficulty if you want to increase the filter.

I would make my own community immediately if it could be done from the browser. No way I’m downloading stuff from github and I don’t have the skills to do cli stuff or whatever. Creating a community needs to be simple like on any board. Once Plebbit has that, then we’re good.
I would try to move but what if I build my own house etc.? Then maybe I won’t want to move and instead would add super strong insulation to my house so that no odor can go in. And maybe sue those people.
They are 'feeders' the other half of the fatty subculture , once someone is immobile because they are extremely morbidly obese they need servants to bring food to them so they can get even larger, that is how people end up at 1000lbs or more when people become immobile at around 600lb .
Yes, of course they are allowed. The plan is to replace all centralized social media, starting with reddit and 4chan. We just needed better NSFW filtering first, and now we have it in the clients.
It would be allowed in the default list. We are already including nsfw subs: fatpeoplehate.eth, which is “anti”, and plebbit-ukraine.eth, which is “gore”. All NSFW subs appear in Plebchan’s homepage board list, whereas on Seedit they don’t appear on p/all unless the user allows nsfw content in the settings (same as old reddit).
Btw, now you can also mark individual posts as NSFW, on Seedit v0.3.0.
>Not as a way to make quick money
its a way to make slow money over 3-4 years (3 years have passed and now 2025 is the year of the plebs).
30m mc EOY. Esteban is with us.
in Plebbit.
Not as a way to make quick money, or escape censorship in the far end of the internet, but as a network who might actually have medium success in the future, and be used by quite a lot of people.
What could be a game changer, is the possibility for each to create his own community, but not be under the autority of a centralized network, like Facebook, Telegram, X...
I think you can set the scraper to pretend to use different browsers and set random delays for going between links. If your scraper goes to the page and then tries to open another link in 69ms it will be classified as a bot
Does anyone know anything about getting around cloudflare protection when botting/web scraping? I've tried a few different things on selenium and playwright but haven't gotten anything yet, I'm able to access a page initially at the start of the session but if I try to access another page on the site in the same session I get blocked, I'm trying to get the bot to sign in, any ideas/advice?
lisan.sol owns it already: https://www.sns.id/domain?domain=gonewild
they even associated a subplebbit-address record with it so they know about plebbit but left the record empty.
I think it should be allowed, but it would be good if the devs confirm it. both reddit and 4chan have very popular porn boards.
It's ultra easy to understand. Instead of protecting a website, or board, with random letters or number to fill in a box, in order to verify it's a human posting, the proof of work captcha make the computer solve a simple mathematical problem.
This way, a DDos attack, or massive bot spamming, would be countered by the fact that the attacking computer would use a lot of CPU ressources, thus spamming itself, rendering the spam not cost-effective.
