Captcha dependency on System.Drawing Namespace
As of .NET 6, the System.Drawing.Common is supported on Windows only:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/compatibility/core-libraries/6.0/system-drawing-common-windows-only

Since the Telerik.Web.Captcha NuGet package depends on the System.Drawing.Imaging, we should consider migrating to an implementation that does not depend on the System.Drawing

We are running into this issue as well after a fair bit of work getting things running locally. This is very disappointing to us. I'd like to see you do two things:

1. Warn users clearly that the control will not work on non-Windows environments.

2. Provide a parallel component that works on Linux and Windows.

Hello, 

I have brought the matter to our Product Managers for discussion. I will get back to you with an update once they've reviewed the request.

Love the Telerik and Kendo UI products and believe more people should try them? Invite a fellow developer to become a Progress customer and each of you can get a $50 Amazon gift voucher.

Hello, 

At this point we cannot re-write the Captcha to use a different dependency as it will cause a breaking change for a lot of users. However, the Captcha is not completely bound to the System.Drawing package. You can pass your own images through the handler configuration.

I think it is important to get the possibility to use the captcha in linux environments. A lot of applications will moving to cloud services or containers. And container and cloud services mostly use linux.
