No Prank On April Fools Day

On April 1st of 2025, we haven't received any pranks from Chess.com. It's quite kooky from every other April 1st. Or the Life Review is the prank?

I hope it's just a joke, and it's removed soon. But it appeared a day before, not [ON] April 1st. (?) Not sure what's the proper etiquette for it.

Uploading a selfie to a remote server is no April Fool’s Day joke. Probably tied into facial recognition from Facebook and other sources to build a profile of users such as income and other things you’ve shared. This app has been pushing engagement for the last year or so, obviously seeking a buyout and this deep user profiling is a part. No thanks.

There was the daily puzzle, but I think that was it.

If this is the reason, that's really sad
