LilaX.0 will have taken over for Thibault and 99.999999% of games will be bots vs bots. Humans will be too busy fighting daily to to meeting their basic survival needs.

for my part I hope that the ribs will be less swollen, and that he changes the glicko system to the same as that of chess.com, on lichess when you at 2000 you at a national level which is false

"the ribs will be less swollen" meaning ?
Agreed about the ratings system.

@Buttercup22
sorry for my spelling, I'm french
I don't think the issue is with your spelling. You spelled all the words correctly.

#24 and #25: Lichess follows the glicko2 specification closely. A change to a lose interpretation of glicko 1 (as is used on a certain chess website) would just make our ratings in lichess less reliable.
Ratings on different sites with different player pools are not meant to be compared directly. "Apple and oranges" kind of stuff ;-)

You can read this from the FAQ: https://lichess.org/faq#ratings
It explains how the rating system works. https://lichess.org/page/rating-systems this link is a useful read to.

Cheers,

While I respect your opinion I've heard all that before and I'm not buying it and I've had extensive debates about it. True they aren't meant to be comparable but with a little jiggering lichess ratings could be brought close to FIDE and or chess dot com, and certainly there's no reason to intentionally make them so divergent by starting new users hundreds of rating points apart. That's just bizarre.
