Lichess v2 is here

Awful design and color gamma!

Now it feels like computer users get disadvantaged because of mobile users. It is just unplayable at my laptop (1600x900). Buttons are large and uncomfortable at all, main page feels very stretchy, piece board is just awkward, chess pieces is blure and large, dots and arrows (when right click) is too large, colors feels like i'am having color disease. It is really like a some compatibility mode for nearsighted people.

Hope you give opportunity to switch to v1.
i want to say to lichess Admin @thibault " you don't know what a big mistake is v2 reverse it ASAP or it may prove a good opportunity to your rivals" I just tried to recovered my lost forgotten chess.com password.
Can we switch back? Please? This is destroying my playing experience.

The board is way too big in standard size - and if you resize it, it doesn't re-draw the pieces, meaning they all become fuzzy and unclear around the edges. Like if you just pulled a drawing in MS Word to resize it. It looks horrible and is very distracting.

In the old version you could resize by zooming in the browser, which re-drew the pieces. In this version if you browser zoom, the board stays the same size.

PLEASE let us switch back
Not a fan of this design.. Now I need to zoom out and scroll all the time, everything is too big!
