Why the bad reputation? It seems fine.

Interface, familiarity and a stronger player strength pool at my level is why I stay, though I do use Lichess as well. 

By the way yes, I completely forgot, I find the interface at lichess.org and at chess24.com in particular very disgusting.

Lichess is minimalistic  which, like, i understand the appeal. 24 though, yeah, not great. 

Everyone has their own tastes. And personally, I don't understand the minimalist.

Leeches' interface is perfectly fine imo. 24 cheeses' is understandably bad.

Credible. It's just that, firstly, I recently started playing in real tournaments, and secondly, these tournaments rarely involve FIDE ratings of 1500+.

Note: The flag isn't real.

Thank you guys for all your responses! <3 Would love to use the heart reaction more, but can't

It does not have a bad reputation at all. It's just a small minority of people making a lot of noise. The vast majority of people is satisfied and has no reason to speak up.

Btw, Pizza mit Knoblauch, really???
