Lobby graph seems not properly sized. Otherwise I think is a bit big and I miss when boxes had border but I will maybe get used to it. Is more responsive and not have I gotten hsts error with firefox for lichess v2, so this is good news.
There are a lot of +'s to V2. The only downside is the sizing. The time clock is just too big, it was way better in v1. Everything else seems like an improvement except for that.
Looks great, feels "smooth". Home screen does feel a bit too "big", but I will get used to that. Board resizing is nice. Still the best site for chess. I am a proud patron, and will continue to be!
First of all big thank you for all the hard work!
This looks great on my phone and tablet. First impression is fantastic.
I read Safari is reasonably supported while chrome and FF get full support?
What am I missing as safari user?

I'll just come out and say it bluntly, this version is awful. There was nothing wrong with the old layout, this layout looks dated and like a downgrade. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!
I really LOVE v2! It's smooth and sleek, the new features are very nice indeed + it feels very fast. The sizing / proportion might need a bit of work, but overall it's really good. Remaining a proud Lichess patron + player.

Now, a few words to everyone who posted negative feedback:
Change is (often) hard + habits are even harder to break. So, just give it a week! Give yourselves a week! Don't draw conclusions (especially negative ones) after only a handful of games on v2. Don't jump to conclusions after a mere couple of hours since v2 was launched. Let your eyes and brain process it, give yourselves some time to adjust. Report bugs, give *constructive* feedback, and I am SURE it will be heard. Please stay respectful + constructive, and be an asset to the Lichess community.
It's so easy to judge, point fingers, demand, threaten to leave the site etc. But it's much harder to recognize the work of a small group of unpaid enthusiasts who spent countless hours making this happen. Even if you absolutely *hate* v2, their work and dedication should not go unnoticed. So, just have a nice word for them. Say "thanks". It really doesn't hurt + it's the RIGHT thing to do.
Thank you, Lichess team, for all your effort and work! Keep up the good work! :)

How can you say this version is bad? It looks great on tablets and phones.
In fact i might just drop using the app. And clock? Perfect size. Its there to remind you need to mooooove.
Hehe.
