hi, so for me when I need an image search or looking for a specific content, yandex is king for me. BUT for the love of Zeus all mighty, I usually get the f'en captcha. and after entering correct responses over and over again but still not progress, I give up. I use FF and brave, nextdns and protonvpn I ain't dropping those. but what do I do? 😭 alternative website? workaround? bend the knee, I.e. drop vpn/nextdns? tx 4 reading.

Same. I also tried the voice accessibility option. I have no idea how you're meant to hear any numbers in that. Yandex captcha really calls for being solved by AI because there's no way a human can do it anymore.

As for workaround, do your search first, then switch to images instead of the other way around.
