I'm logged into my MetaCPAN using my PAUSE account. When I click on the "++" button on any module's page, after a 3-10(!) second delay (which I don't consider to be very good usability, fwiw), a pop-up appears that says I need to complete a CAPTCHA in order to use the "++" button. After I click OK and complete the CAPTCHA, I get a "Success" message. However, when I return to module's page and reload the web page, the "++" count has not increased and my account is not listed as a "plusser". I've tried this a bunch of times with multiple distributions with no success.

EDITED TO ADD: I'm using Safari on iPadOS 17.5.1, the latest release.

Also, underneath the CAPTCHA "Success" message, there's a link to "Continue browsing". I would expect this link to take me to back to the web page of the module where I clicked the "++" button. It doesn't. It takes me to another CAPTCHA instead. Not very useful.

There were issues with disk space yesterday. Is this working for you now?

It's working better (no CAPTCHA today), but it doesn't seem perfect. I just ++'ed a distribution, waited a couple seconds, and then reloaded the web page. It didn't show me as having ++'ed it (it still showed zero), but I did see my avatar listed at the bottom of the left sidebar as someone who ++'ed it. Reloading two more times seemed to fix the ++ indicator though, so maybe it was just a caching issue.

Should the issue with the "Continue browsing" link post-CAPTCHA be a separate issue?

I think so. See also #572

I think so.

OK, I've opened a new issue for that: #3126. Closing this issue as the problem seems to be resolved.
