It seems that reCAPTCHA is loaded on all pages. Even pages that do not have forms include reCAPTCHA. This slows down page loading unnecessarily on those pages.
Please have reCAPTCHA load only in pages that have forms.
I just reduced my home page's Time to Interactive from 7.5 sec to 4.0 by removing the reCAPTCHA. I also improved PageSpeed rank from 67 to 79. 😳 And page load feels much snappier. 🤔 I realize reCAPTCHA may need to running stuff in the background during the user's session in order to determine if the user is real, but… there's gotta be a better way…

Yes, please take a look into this. My site is failing LCP core web vitals with reCAPTCHA taking 26% of the resources when loading.

This would help a lot for improving Google PageSpeed score!
