    How does this limit bot use? Is there something anti bot about chromium? Or does the api do more beyond checking for chromium compatible browsers

      Because websites will check if you have a Web Integrity token being sent along by the browser and if it cannot find one registrations and login will be closed to your instance.

      Edit: And to clarify, you will not get that token unless you verify your identity within the associated google account. Hence why only Chromium browsers will support this. But it isn’t about the browser. It’s about the token.
