## Get captcha token
To get the token, go to https://signalcaptchas.org/registration/generate.html
You need to open the page on the same device that runs the signal-cli register command (or at least a device that has the same external IP address).
(If the token from that page doesn't work, you can try https://signalcaptchas.org/challenge/generate.html)
After filling the captcha, the site doesn't immediately show the token but tries to redirect to a `signalcaptcha://` url that contains the token.
