Huh?  Did I miss something?  As of late, I haven't noticed CF captchas 
disappeared, or worked any better in Tor Browser.
Are you talking about a special case?

Sometimes, in Firefox on the same site I may not get any captcha, a few 
minutes after trying a couple of times in TBB.
If it's a trustworthy site (if there's such a thing) & JS is allowed for 
all necessary 3rd parties on the site, the captchas will either work in 
the 1st 1 or 2 tries in TBB, or they won't at all.
And in Firefox, where I have a lot of blocking addons, it almost always 
works w/ JS allowed on just the base domain.
