For online chess, my favourite time settings are
- 2 0 or 1.5 0, with no increment (touchscreen playing only! the mouse is a little slower).

Since Spring 2024 I have been playing heterodox chess too, including:
- 960,
- Paradigm Chess30 (!),
- Seirawan,
- Duck,
- Crazyhouse,

etc. (full lists in my web space).

I play chess in person (otb) as well, and love it.
