Rate Limit on singing up for Hexbear
Hey, so my friend wanted to sign up for Hexbear, but after failing the Captcha once they've been rate limited for a while now. They're using Chrome. Is there are any kind of solution you would recommend?

If your friend uses a VPN, have them try switching endpoints. Otherwise they’re just going to have to wait.
Rate limits are implemented on the server side. Clearing cache / switching browsers likely won't make any impact.
If you make your proposed username "ILoveTheMods" wiith a selection of numbers after it, that bypasses the limit.

::: spoiler I'll sing Hexbear's praises whenever I want to! I'm terribly sorry. I had to make that joke. :::
I think I remember some bullshit like having to wait an hour because the first attempt's username was already taken.
