Now need to verify I am a human by Cloudflare???
Noticed I now have to verify with some Cloudflare thing that I am a human every time I try to log into the Roku Community. So far, no pictures, but this is getting insane.
Forum Discussion
Problem with all these verifications is the time wasted.
Sign in to Roku --> then have to sign in to your email --> depending on your email, you may now have to sign into yet another email or wait for a text to verify that you are indeed trying to sign into your email just to get to the message verifying that you are attempting to sign in into Roku.

Kind of why it seems easier to memorize or save the 5 digit number of any Roku device for these logins.

It does now seem that the user experience (on both this forum and the Roku platform) is a secondary/backseat consideration for any objective that Roku is attempting to achieve at the time. Does not seem to factor into their decisions all that much anymore.
Yeah my email inbox is usually just a tab away. But this still feels like an awkward extra obstacle to logging in.
At least they're being consistent. For a while now it has seemed like the Roku employees commenting here have never actually used a Roku. And now it looks like the people running this forum don't know what it's like to use the forum.
The Roku moderators here don't have an original thought in their brains. All of their responses are the same, ask for serial numbers and software versions then copying and pasting the same troubleshooting steps over and over again that don't work. Even if they just pasted them in response to someone else in the same topic they'll do it again.
Now they've implemented this annoyance just to login, you should not have to go to another website to login into email just to login to this site. I don't care if 'it's just a tab away' it's ridiculous and completely annoying. The more time I spend using Roku and this forum the more I begin to loathe the entire experience.
