Chess.com vs Lichess

This topic answers a question that may seem disturbing to some: Why Chess, com is considered the best chess page in the world when Lichess has a greater variety of games; more possibilities and level of play, in addition to other things that Chess.com does not have or that are difficult to use or get on your website?

Opinions, comments and others leave them on this topic to know your personal opinion.
I guess its just a certain IM working for chess.com who thinks this is the best site. The same guy who still believes Nakamura is the best bullet and blitz player :D.

But no offense here, I actually like that IM.
@Samarta Chess.com has a few features Lichess does not, but we have a lot on this site for it being free. Some of the things chess.com have that keep people there are Puzzle Rush, Bughouse, Arena Kings, and the Computer Chess Championships.
There are certain aspects of Chess.com, of which I am a member of as well under the same username as here, that I like and vice versa with this site. There's no harm in using both and enjoying both in the aspects that the other don't have. Chess.com has a better forum system, Lichess has a very innovative My Studies section. Use both sites, play on both sites and enjoy both for what they have to offer. Thus I would venture that both are equally good...
