ChessMood ads shills and blog • page 2/3 • General Chess Discussion • lichess.org

Lichess staff probably did not think there would be so much ads and shilling when they wrote that etiquette, ChessMood should get completly filtered by lichess the amount of shameless pushing it gets in blog is pathetic and it goes against what lichess stands for.

Overpriced garbage by two dudes that don t know how to shave their eyebrows, with no idea what begginers need.

I checked some of their videos and I watched a low elo affiliated streamer go over their opening videos made for beginners, the videos are filled with some bs lines that make the openings seem like black magic, the worst part is the pricing the price is higher than chess com membership and their content is way worse than chess com lessons.

This is all up for the debate tho, the only thing that is not for debate is their ads and shilling on an ad free site.

Once you trim your eyebrows you never go back, you get an eye for hairy eyebrows.

Also I keep reading about "One Simple Tip" from those guys. That phrase should be a warning sign to anyone...

@Boomskhi Ha! Open source project is sure better. I love Lichess opening courses better. I've learned how to fight the English Opening, the Sicilian, and many more! Best part? It's free!

Ok I hate chess mood. But to be fair if you don’t like their blog don’t read it. Simple as that. And worse yet don’t post here. They have a right to post stuff to their own blog.
