For them, Lichess is a paradise and everything is working smoothly and ... just perfect!

We're wrong, they're right, period.

I will eventually leave this server, because, honestly, I can stand all this stuff for more time.

Yes, I recommend

  1. FIDE Online Arena https://chessarena.com/

This is the #1 Official FIDE website for Chess.... why would you play on Unofficial Lichess Clone of FIDE when you can get legitimate FIDE Arena GM title by playing online at the real website ?? This is the place for serious...

  1. Internet Chess Club (ICC) https://www.chessclub.com/

Very old Windows 98 website but good if you pay a lot of money kind of like Chess.com

  1. Free Internet Chess Club (FICS) https://www.freechess.org/

Very old free Win98 web.... the players on FICS say it is much better than Lichess though...

I guess you're being sarcastic. Fide Online Arena is plenty of Indian players. The lag issue is even worst.

As for ICC and FICS ... they were working well, some years ago. So they did well in the past.

However, you've missed a very good server (perhaps you don't know it), https://play.chessbase.com/en. So much better than Lichess in every single aspect, except for the number of available players. The pool is oscillating between 1.5K & 2K. And yes, you can play for free o buy a premium membership. And guess what? You can ban for yourself the slow Internet users!! Wow, did you see it? It's not that difficult and unfair, it's just a way to reward membership users over free users (and with poor Internet).
