have played 25,000 + games on chess.com. I have reached there 2000 level, but after that my rating stopped increasing because I cannot choose to play higher opponent players. Then I switched to lichess my ranking increased up to 2150 here, I felt like I am improving because I started to play stronger opponents, although I had lost majority of games, but still I liked it.
This was only reason I decided to switch to lichess rather than playing on chess.com.
I guess its time to get back to chess.com cause more players are there and more features available.
So everyone go back to chess.com, lichess has just become its fake copy. This rating range selection was the only advantage of lichess over chess.com
Come on Lichess.org are you sure you want to keep this new slider to select rating range?
Cheers.
@Akimzhan Lol, this change was unrequired but it does not mean Chess.com is now better than Lichess. Lichess will always remain the best chess site.
Happy Horseying!
spamming the same advertisement over and over in multiple threads won't change the answer. more features available is amusing. Playing one game is a rating win on lichess they use different rating systems. You're not 150 points better a player because you played higher rated people. you are becaue the rating systems measure different. your chess didn't get worse because the site changed it's seek range. Make friends with the higher rated you play and play friends when they're stronger
@The_Human_Paradox can u name other advantages over chess.com?
free everything should I list them all individually or do you get the gist? All the titleds I know with free chesscom import their games to Lichess for analysis. Magnus owns part of chess24 he plays online most on lichess. zero time premoves. doesn't look like it was built in dos., isn't riddled with adds.......
@Akimzhan Um, how about the fact that you get every great feature for free without any ads... Or is that even too less for you.?
