It may be true for brand new installations of Joomla 5; I haven't tested it yet. It is definitely not true for websites that are migrated from J4 to J5.There is no core Captcha Plugins in Core J5.
If people upgrade from J4 to J5 the "invisible reCAPTCHA" plugin is removed as part of the process. I've read complaints/observations from people about missing Google reCAPTCHA in J5 (e.g. viewtopic.php?t=1006840) and the advice is to install a third-party plugin. Either Joomla supports its own plugins or it doesn't, wouldn't you think?
Perhaps the developers have abandoned CAPTCHA and left it to third-party developers to fill the gap? There is a very brief sentence in this article: https://magazine.joomla.org/all-issues/ ... f-joomla-5
There are many articles on the internet about the new features added to J5; there are not many articles that talk about the features that were removed from J5.Enhanced Security ... and the removal of no longer functional Recaptcha plugins boosts security.
