Turn off helping dots

Hi, just arrived here, looks interesting. One little ting: How do I remove the "helping dots" when choosing a piece? I don't find it in the settings but they are very disturbing for my eyes.
Dear @Hesten-fra-Herning, welcome here!

Yeah, fully agree - this is a disturbing feature for people who know where to move :)
But useful for beginners - hence showing those "helping dots" is set as default for new accounts.

To change it: please click on: lichess.org/account/preferences/display
Then choose "NO" on Piece destinations (valid moves and premoves)
Done!
Happy chessing and all best!
Wow, thank you so much @Funkmaus! That's a very nice welcome - I already like it here :-)
Will be absolutely perfect without piece destinations!
I never even noticed they were bothering me... but I just switch them off and it does look better now. Thanks for the thread!
but how do I know where the pieces can go?
