I don't know why this new chesscom layout was implemented, because it’s honestly a mess. It looks worse than before, it’s harder to navigate, and it’s made the site less usable, especially for people using older phones . The interface feels cluttered and chaotic, like they just want to make the site in their image instead of how us users would appreciate it. What’s even more frustrating is that chesscom seems to be spending a ton of time and money on these updates that nobody asked for, while the actual chess experience (YK THE CHESS IN CHESS .  COM) is being neglected. We want better analysis tools, smoother gameplay, and features that actually make improvement easier. Instead, we get a redesign that makes everything harder. For starters of what chess . com COULD be doing, I will make a list of my thoughts. Post a comment of what you think should be added! A new update to the train section including drills A new update to Game of the day! Nobody really tunes in anymore, but if it was more exciting there would be much more benefit! An update to the new player algorithm! I think that new players should be randomly required to play bots that actually simulate a game of their level! This would cut down on cheating because the new players could be caught before they did any damage! A better way to contact support. I'm just going to say it. Nobody likes and or needs Chessica (support bot). She failed kindergarten and how she got a job working here I can't tell you.This is just like the profile mess and NOBODY likes it again! Chess.com the reason I stopped my paid membership is because this site does listen to member's opinions. Please fix this... Thumbs up if you agree and thumbs down if I shouldn't have wrote this 😅

...I pretty much cant check messages nor have live chat open anymore when I play chess cuz it lags so bad like why does me trying to check my messages cause the entire site to freeze for a solid minute? and the live chat as well, why does it lag when I type there so much?

The link for this ARENA isn't working. The event is being played on Sunday. We need CHESS.COM to fix the link before Sunday. The bug will prevent us from playing the ARENA. https://www.chess.com/play/arena/4451875 I trust in the effectiveness of the technical support.

And why is the limit 9?

The new sidebar isn't bad, it's just the top right that is terrible. 5 suggestions: 1. Make the max notification limit 99 again, not just 9 2. Make the icons have an actual size to it, as they are way too small currently. 3. Create separate sections in the notification part for notes, new forums, old forums that have just have somebody talked in it (when you click follow). 4. Have a completely separate thing for chat instead of bundling it up with messages. 5. Includes a mark all as read/ clear all notifications feature.

Go to ,,Play online’’ and click ,,F,,

When i mute it shows that i muted him but when i reload it the mute sign disapears and its says "mute" but mute is still active

Just want to say that the new layout is good but the icons often dont render, so i cant clikc them. But c.c keep up the good work.

For some reason when I go to this club's home page:https://www.chess.com/club/devil-club-vnmusic that don't sound like it would be from this site. So I don't know if I should report it, or if its only me who can get it, and don't ask how I found that club, I may or may not have been snooping around (I just looked at the clubs a person was part of). So if any of y'all have an answer, please tell me

Why chess.com, why

im asking bcuz i dont want to laern more that i know about old look

It's still in development, so can I suggest some things It has a lot of potential to be grat 1. make the messages, notifs, and friends able to hover over 2. make them all bigger 3. move the notifications back to the chess.com thing 4. Make the sidebar customizable

https://www.chess.com/openings is now not connected to any menu option, which I find rather annoying. I used to often browse it to look for a good response or a cool new opening. Could you please add this back to the menu, maybe under the option name "Openings Database"? Also, all my old bookmarked openings are gone now!

THIS IS GOD AWFUL GROSS PLS MAKE THIS REVERTABLE IN SETTINGS

of these awful UI changes please edit this before inevitably rolling this out thank you I'm too young to be feeling too old for this but whatever I'm not going to make a dissertation on why this new UI sucks I don't have the time but I just want to point out this one thing i find funny With every new UI change it becomes harder to reach the today page, I guess with the next one they'll make you have to type it into the url huh? lol

When I get hint for Puzzle my rating was low at 16 points  How?

Hell naw this is the new beta also those toaster notifs be popping up three at a time

so I notice the side bar has changed (witch I like the changes!) but first thing is that everytime I go to a new thing like from home to play bots or from forums to clubs I have a notification appear by play then quickly vanish, also quick sudjustion:make a setting toggle to remove the free trial thing

The new layout is absolutely trash but the developers can make it close to the old layout.

1. bc most people foscos of the og ui chess.com 2. its more nostalgic than the new 3. its harder 4. bc of the lack of original 5. thats all bye made by me (as a scholar in the forsaken nostalgic hangout)
