I haven't encountered a Captcha logging into Roku for months. Perhaps try clearing your browser cache, just in case. Roku now uses a different product called Cloudflare, which only requires checking a box to prove you are real. No picture clicking at all. And once I'd done it several times, I don't even have to do that anymore, and it takes me straight back to the login page.
Good suggestion. I just realized I keep getting the picture captchas and failed captcha each time when on Firefox. But in Chrome I can get right in just clicking the cloudflare box.

FYI - If your not already aware, you should really look into the BRAVE Web Browser - which has many of the best features of Chrome and Firefox combined and auto configured - kinda the best of both.
Firefox is wonderful in many ways with hordes of Plug-In Apps to extend it, such as NoScript, AbBlock, uBlock Origin, as now others do too. They have their own config's to review if a page works in one and now the other. Brave come with several of these features auto pre-configed & user changeable.

brave uses the Chromium engine which is a build of webkit, Firefox uses the Gecko engine which is not the same. some of us prefer not to support the chromium monopoly. that being said I haven't had any issues with the cloudflare verification on firefox and I haven't seen Captcha for some time on my main computer. my annoyance is having to click a link in my email to sign in now. I would much rather have access to a 2FA token than that nonsense.

I use Firefox (currently 124), and only have the Cloudfare thing. I usually have to click the box, but it works.
