[Unrelated] Google / Craigslist Reply Button Captcha ?

Hello everyone, I am running Win 7 Pro 64 Bit , Pale Moon 27.9.0 64 Bit , and Noscript 5.1.8.5
I am trying to reply to an ad on Craigslist, the yellow reply button on the top left. When I click
on it, I see a captcha icon show up on the bottom right, then a spinning gray circle in the center
of the screen, and then it says "sorry, something went wrong".
I understand this is Google Captcha? Its odd, never had this problem before.

How have you determined this is a NoScript issue?

Since the last time that the reply button worked on Craigslist, nothing has been added to my
browser, such as an add on etc...
I did upgrade to the latest version of Pale Moon and noscript since the last time the
reply button worked on Craigslist.
So though it could be one or the other, I do not believe it is addon or extension related.

What was the previous NoScript version you had?
As a test, if you downgrade to that NoScript version again, does the reply button work again?
Old NoScript @

Does disabling NoScript (Tools > Add-ons Manager > NoScript > Disable > Yes, remove ALL protections) get it working?
If so, does it work with NS enabled if you Allow Scripts Globally with no sites Marked as Untrusted?

"Does disabling NoScript (Tools > Add-ons Manager > NoScript > Disable > Yes, remove ALL protections) get it working?"
No, it does not. I even removed noscript totally and went back to craigslist without nocript, that reply button when
pressed still says something went wrong.
Google Chrome, no problem, shows email/phone number etc...
Firefox Quantum, no problem, shows email/phone number etc...

Then this is not a NoScript issue. Thanks for letting us know.

If you try to reply on Craigslist and the captcha spits up, "Sorry, something went wrong", try Firefox.
I use Pale Moon because I don't like Firefox's Australis display, but PM's based on an older version of FF.
I downloaded the latest FF, ran it bare-naked on my Linux box, and I was able to reply on Craigslist.
