Websites using CAPTCHAs are a PITA. You most likely

the correct text. If you have bad luck it could take days, month,
years, before you entered the correct text. Some CAPTCHAs are easy to
use, but I always feel oppression if I need to enter a CAPTCHA.
Usually it's impossible to distinguish aob from aOb or a0b and some
CAPTCHAs seem to be case-sensitive, at least they use numbers and
letters. Depending to the kind of CAPTCHA an o or O could be a D or c
and a even a t could be a r.
Even some terminal fonts make it impossible to distinguish an I from a
l or a 1.
Unfortunately they use the same CAPTCHAs if a user wants to contact
them.
For Linux only it's easier to request the output of cryptic commands,
users just need to copy and paste from a terminal. Uncomfortable if
somebody wants to register from a mobile phone, or if the command is to
cryptic, e.g. "foo 'bar'" without the quotes is often copied as
foo 'bar with a mising '
Let's try to help each other instead of rambling. The OP inquires about
ideas, not opinions ;)
Thanks,
Jeremy
