My server is highly targeted by automated spam signups. I've been countering that by having manually approved registrations, but that's not a situation I like.

I'm trying to implement hCaptcha (a better alternative privacy-wise to Google's reCAPTCHA) on my server. The current state is that the form always gets rejected and there's no error message for failing to validate it. Check it out if you're interested or wanna help out github.com/Siphonay/mastodon/t

The hCaptcha gem is forked from the reCAPTCHA one, and works in an identical way, so if one would like for some reason to use the latter, it would be pretty easy to adapt.

If you wanna test it out on your end, you have to set the HCAPTCHA_SITE_KEY and HCAPTCHA_SECRET_KEY variables in your .env.production file
