7-piece Syzygy tablebases are complete

Really nice :)

I'm just wondering ; how was the number of unique positions found (423,836,835,667,331) ? Did they just exhaust all posibilities or there is some mathematical proof behind it ?
@sk0bel I think u can find a formula using combinatory analysis, although I haven't tried to find it myself.
Very nice. I had been using the free Android app from ChessOK and their Aquarium integration until now, but this just brings it to the place I'll be anyway. Big thanks to the developer, and nice job on the compression.
Thank you for this novelty and improvement

In your describtion, could you please replace
"How to use tablebases on Lichess?
In endgame positions the opening explorer is replaced by a tablebase explorer. During analysis, click the book icon on the right side of the board to open it."

by "....left side of the board to open it."
Thank you all.
How far is 8 pcs option? A year, 5, 10?
This was long awaited-desired, and big at this moment, but in essence when you subtract 2 kings and a pair of rooks, place for 3 pawns is all that remains. 2:1
Comforting fact is that more complicated positions are out of reach for my memory :)
