We need more time control options!
Sort:
You can play games with a custom time control.
Most important are 3|2 blitz and 15|10 rapid, the official time controls like for the world championship.

That's the first time I've ever seen a seek graph for chess.com. I use the android mobile app.
How many people even know that it exists?
What if the open seeks (and ability to create them) were displayed prominently, right next to the presets without the need for extra clicks?

Maybe that's most important for you, but some of us want more options! I play 30 0, and a similar time format that includes increment would be utilized regularly. (20 15 would be great) Currently it takes too long to find custom games because they require extra clicks. (They are buried) Same problem with Chess960.

On the app, only Daily games are shown on the seek graph. But space is always going to be an issue and for the vast majority of live time controls, they are going to be paired very quickly and it doesn't really make a lot of sense to always show the graph.

Yes exactly. If chess.com had a better community more free stuff and more time controls in could actually catch up with lichess strenth
