Lichess v2 is here

I was really skeptical about any change. I didn't think any improvement could be made over v1. But somehow you made it! It looks smoother and finally it is functional on mobiles! Thank you!

The only thing I would suggest you to reconsider is the wide usage of this shining blue color. How about something more discrete like a pigment of grey?

Anyway it is wonderful and you should have absolutely no second thoughts about abandoning v1! It can only get better from now on!

We need to concentrate on more than meets the eye.
I mean the chessboard. Please give me the v1 board size back.
Don't tell me I can adjust it. Please give me the old one back.

I usually don't double post (sorry about that), but I really don't know which topic has visibility re. feedback for v2.

So, here are a couple of suggestions for the forum navigation:

The forum topic navigation should have buttons for FIRST PAGE and LAST PAGE (i.e. the |< and >| buttons), in addition to the page by page navigation.

Also, would be nice if we could sort the forum topics both chronological AND reverse chronological. Maybe this should be an option in Settings?

Thanks.

on chess.com the unsupported browsers still allow you to play games with no issue. If you cannot do the same chess.com is just going to overpower you guys. Especially since you guys literally discarded literally a third of the market... People that say oh you can use linux do not understand that in other countries they may not have access to such software... Just absurd...

the new design comes with increased lag.

For UB its horrible.

everything is worse with v2.

bigger text that looks awful and the design and clock round the bord looks very bad.

I guess the lags depending on something but i dont know why, if server is bad or the code is bad?

LC was very good before, but know its terrible.

Looks good guys!

Couple minor UI remarks:

  • I would argue that the pieces look blurry in Chrome, even at 100% zoom level.
  • The green circles showing legal moves when you click a piece, are not blurry but but show some artifacts as well (not perfect vector circles)
  • In analysis, when turning on cloud analysis, the green CLOUD icon looks weirdly stretched.
  • https://lichess.org/Jpe1l7CV/white#36
    I think that the pieces next to the board (droppable) DO look sharp (not-blurry). If you resize the board to have the pieces on-board the same size as off-board, you can see the difference. (Perhaps this can help in fixing)

Keep up the good work!

More major bug, view the embedded board in my post above.
What is that thing blocking the view at the left top? ( https://boring.host/10IWGnsh )

Nice work! I did not read all the posts before, sorry for that, but here are my firsts impressions:

-It really looks great! New interface is more readable, especially on smartphones (thanks to responsible tech!)

-Minor bug: I can’t scroll down in my news feed on my Ipad, it just constantly goes back to top. Also there is no more <last page> and <first page> button in the forum.

-I cannot see the pseudo of @lance5500 anymore! Hidden by his too-many trophies ;)

-I found the blog announcing V2 especially clear, kudos @thibault (though it was not the harder part of the update I think)

I have been here for a while, and I know this moment is not the easier, fixing the bugs and having angry-member complaining about the new interface. Good Luck!

Ps: @DABO5000 You can download Linux from the internet, free. So if you are already playing on lichess, you can install Linux ;)
