This site is requiring an email address to register a matrix.org account. Odd.

Then I'm guessing it has a captcha. I'm not sure because it fails to load with Privacy Badger enabled.

My attention just wandered away. Hopefully they can address some basic privacy concerns and get another at-bat.

Edit: Seems that matrix.org is now requiring an email address.

CAPTCHA is enforced by server itself, so client is just following that.
yup, we mandate email on matrix.org atm as an anti spam measure
