Why you prefer LIchess over CHess.com? Which chess.com features you miss on lichess.com?

What I like about Lichess:

  1. Studies
  2. Better interface and less lag.
  3. Completely free and open-source
    What I miss on Lichess (that Chess.com has)
  4. 4-player chess
  5. Swiss tournaments
  6. Bughouse
    Edit: I forgot to mention the annoying Chess.com ads, very distracting unless you "go premium"

@Joke2025 You should stop trying to persuade us that four person chess is greater than standard chess, the original chess variant itself. Anyways, lichess.org is much more comfortable and good-looking than chess.com. We will love Lichess forever!

@Archer66 You are one of the only reasonable people listing the pros and cons of lichess.org and chess.com.

Wish more people played 960 on here. To get my fix I head on over to chess com.

I don't play on chess.com any more because it fills up your browser cache quickly and then you experience either acute lag or a total freezing of your computer. Also, most of the chats on chess.com are very banal making it seems like the whole site is full of misbehaving teenagers. Lichess performs much better than chess.com and I don't miss chess.com's usually stupid chats. Glad to be here.
