So I was playing with the focus mode on (by pressing 'Z'), which makes the board bigger and removes chat, but when I lost and went to play another game pressing 'Z' did literally nothing. But then I saw it - by hovering over the settings button, there's a "Focus mode" option - something that wasn't there before. My theory is that chess.com had an update while I was playing and when I reviewed the game, the page reloaded and updated. I think that this change is nice, especially if you don't know the shortcuts. but it would be better if both methods stayed.
Here's the second game btw:
The focus mode option by the board has always been there, ever since it was initially implemented.
