Kind of weird to include the name of one multiple times and not the other at all.

Well spotted

Lichess is mentioned in the left column but not in its own, funnily enough.
-
-
Lichess has a vastly superior puzzle engine, it takes moments from real games where the player have made a mistake, catalogues it, ranks it and you can even check out the real game if you want.
There are millions of high quality puzzles.
I like puzzles.

My puzzle elo is 1600, my real elo 1300
Maybe i should stop playing blitz and play a long match where i have time to think about my Moves?
Nah to slow.

Isn't lichess already the standard?
-
In the chess streamer world, they all play chess.com because they get paid too. And there are gamification features like novelty 'bots' and daily rewards.
Lichess is much more serious and is solely focused on the chess experience

Ahh, that laird makes sense

Thanks for reminding me I have a chess subscription that was set to renew in June. I'll keep playing on chess.com but they're not getting my money.
My cancellation message was "buy european"

folks, if you play on lichess, do consider donating.
i could afford it for one month and i got this cool "wings" icon next to my handle. it felt good swaggering into tournaments with that by my name!

I have a really stupid question. I don't play chess but how do you "detect" cheating from a good player?
Outside of the guy that had a butt plug, I'm confused on how you could know online whether someone is cheating or not.

There are obvious patterns, like the time to make a move.
Additionally, chess engines make moves that don't really make sense to humans because they are making considerations hundreds of moves out, so if a player, through multiple games, consistently makes moves that are the best or close to the best engine moves, but don't really make sense, that pattern can be analyzed.
One fluke of a brilliant move that obviously doesn't mean anything. But if you are consistently playing 1000 moves ahead, that's obviously impossible.
Combine that with user reports to see what players to deeply analyze it can work well.
It helps to consider that computers are significantly better than humans at chess, so much so that they would say the best technical move is one that looks like a blunder to most players, including professionals.
-
You must do the procedure.
-
In part it has to do with matching overly consistently with the moves engines would pick. Even the best players in the world perform worse than modern engines, not to mention you'd expect human players to vary at least sometimes by personal preference among roughly equivalent options.

Curious as well
-
Not a player either. My understanding is that there are a couple giveaways.
- AI play very differently than people.
The thinking* for AI is shortest term and it's my understanding that it's obvious to people that play.See below. - It's possible to look up optimal* moves based on the board state. I would imagine that they'll keep an eye on your browser/system to keep an eye out for such tools.

Good move posting this, Blaze ;)
We should have a meme from !anarchychess@sopuli.xyz showing Blaze boldly challenging chess.com

Why not ha ha

I rarely play chess, but when I do it's with the lichess app
-
On lichess, en passant get a 15% boost. 20% if you are playing in france
-
Warning: it can be addictive (source: my brother is a chess nerd)
-
Thanks! Was actually wondering about that yesterday after I got my ass handed to me twice in a row. Could really use some practice 😅
-
looks like the lichess UX was written by people who have no idea how to design UX
-
genuinely curious: what problems do you face on lichess' ui?
i personally havent found anything in the lichess experience detrimental.
-
It takes a little getting use to for sure. There are some quirks as well. The mobile app is also only somewhat polished.
