I think it will be available very soon :)

We have instructions on how to install Stockfish on some local GUIs. Depending on the GUI you've chosen, the way to install Stockfish on it may vary. They usually have either a button to download and install Stockfish directly, or there is an option to select an engine in their settings.

WHY?

@C_CBD I wanted to talk to you about something.

What about Brave browser? Will we have it on that as well?

omg... SF17 is such a huge improvement (from my personal tests at home). There was a slow down in calculation speed that was experienced from version 15.1 to 16 iirc. SF17 is WAY faster and more efficient than 16.1 was. I'm running "homefish" on a Ryzen 9 7950x3D with 15 cores/30 threads, 56GB RAM, 512VNNI version. The nps on average is 22-24knps minimum for typical early middle game positions. On previous versions, My calculations would reach depth of 37 to 40 in one minute/ 45 to 52 in two minutes. On SF17, I'm reaching depth 45 minimum on the same positions within one minute and surpassing depth 60 in two minutes. The strength and speed are huge improvements over previous versions.
