Hope you enjoy it! I do intend on having the coverage be edited with live boards, but that will obviously take a long time ...

Great article. The question of weak popularity has occupied me for a long time, especially after helmsknight managed to host a 2019 stream bughouse featuring very famous grandmasters Hikaru Nakamura and Yasser Seirawan. Subsequently, I realized that for many players the obstacle is not the difficulty of the game itself, but the difficulty of playing well. Many players fail to realize that their problems and nervousness in the game are due to a lack of awareness of the concepts of the game.

Yes, you mention a good reason. There are many more in fact, definitely worth doing a follow-up article on the popularity of the game. Bughouse is also very humbling for chess players as many titled players find it difficult to get good at it even after investing some time.

That's an interesting thought, although I stopped writing and had other ideas, perhaps this could be a topic for a text. I think the players' problems are just a lack of learning the concepts, it just takes awareness.
