It would be cool if you could hide the viewers

Some players me included find it distracting to see who is watching your current game. It also often changes during the game. It would be cool if there was something in the settings to hide who is watching your game or just hide it completely if it is not possible to change it in the settings.

Like if you agree, dislike if you disagree. Horsey if you don't care.
You can try "Zen Mode", which makes only the board and clock visible to you.

To activate Zen Mode, go to Preferences, Game Display, and scroll down to find the 'Zen Mode' option (should be third from the bottom).
I believe that there are scripts out there that do this.

The more features get added to the site, the more cluttered and complicated it gets. I don't think it would be worth it to add this fairly mundane feature which some scripts already accomplish.
Hmmm, I can't seem to find one. I swear I remembered hearing something about one, a few months ago or something, but my memory often fails me. In any case, if you want to file an issue, you can do so here github.com/ornicar/lila/issues/
One thing I have noticed is if you toggle with the board size and then zoom in (using command + or whatever the zoom command is on your computer), you can make it so that it hides the spectators.
@fuxia cool I just saw that you just put in "display: none". I know css myself. Didn't think about that simple solution at all. Lol
Of course it's possible and allowed. The changes happen on your computer after the page has been downloaded, and what happens on your machine is entirely up to you. :)

See my other lichess user stylesheets on the linked page for some inspiration.
