Impossible to play with so many bots maintained by the site!

#1

The amount of bots maintained by chess.com and lichess has turned into a veritable disease. The amount of human players who actually enjoy and actually play chess on a regular basis is so small that the wait for a game most of the time would be long. That's why they use bots without warning, without users' knowledge. I hope that someday someone with computer knowledge and financial conditions will be able to prove the use of bots by these sites, and those responsible will be duly punished. Today, both on chess.com and lichess, there is only one category of chess players who manage to have fun playing online: Professional players, titled players, in addition to being able to have fun, they still earn money to do what they like. We, the mere amateurs, are the clowns that move the machine. Today, I can say without fear of making mistakes, the only honest online chess site is the FIDE arena, because there the user is warned that the site did not find a human opponent and that a bot will be activated to play with you, if not want to play, just cancel the challenge and search again for human opponents. Even the FIDE arena clearly demonstrates why lichess and chess.com have become totally dependent on hidden bots: The amount of humans actually playing is so small, that long waits for matches would be unavoidable, I'd rather wait, or be warned not to a human opponent was found, then I decide whether or not I want to play against a disgusting machine. In the FIDE arena, out of every 10 challenges launched, maybe you'll get one against a human being, that's the reality, the rest is false advertising. I hope that one day the world chess community pays more attention to this nastiness that is destroying real online chess day by day. In terms of naughty, chess.com is more serious, because there they earn money in many accounts, here, at least, it is 100% free from end to end. As for the number of hidden bots, both cc and lichess are Siamese brothers in naughty.

This is a completely free website, it is your choice to use its features or not. You have already mentioned it here. If you don't like it here and are paranoid about bots, play Over The Board. If there are bots OTB too, get professional help.

Do you yourself have computer knowledge and financial conditions to prove the existence of bots? I don't think so. Yet here you are, complaining about a problem you cannot even prove exists.

Comparing Lichess and chess.com as brothers is an insult to Lichess.
