the hint feature can be made

So , recently Lichess added a new feature of giving hints on puzzles , but it fells like it is not good enough and can be made better , here are my following suggestions -

  1. First of all , when we use the hint feature it gives us a hint on which piece to move , which is good , but if we still don't know where to move the piece we are stuck , my suggestion is that when we use the hint feature twice it shows us where to move the piece by the help of arrows,

  2. Just highlighting where to move the piece is not as interactive as it can be my suggestion is that we use AI (or humans suggestions) to set specific hints on specific puzzles For example if their is a puzzle where you have to sacrifice your rook in order to mate the enemy king the hint can be - 'You can use one of your pieces to thrash the enemy king , can you find it ?" or if their is a puzzle in which you have to push a pawn to block mate the hint can be - "Your king is not in a safe place , your little soldiers need to protect him !" these are going to be way more better than the dry hints we get now and we can use an AI software to do this or in some puzzles we can suggest the hint , like if a players puzzle is getting published he can write the hint himself .

Of course this is very hard task to do but we can make it happen ! I believe in the Lichess army !

I will be posting regular (once a week) so to improve my writing skills and even make this website a better place for all of us !

peace :)
