@Baabashi You can download the code directly from the GitHub and add it manually: https://github.com/Adrian-Oliveira/BoardCentralizer/tree/production

You only need to extract the files and load it in chrome://extensions/ with the developer mode on (make sure to load the chrome folder).

2024 and option to center the board on the screen still missing from chess.com

Cutting edge UI

Anyone else like to move their seat a few inches to the side when playing OTB for the authentic chess.com experience?

if you play on mobile, its centered. the downside tho is:
1. too small.
2. only allows you to pre-move once then wait for your opponent to move.
3. misclicking is more common.
4. cant draw arrows (possible on pc by holding the right click button and then dragging it to the square you want the arrow to go).
5. harder to focus.

good side:
1. cetralized board.
2. u can see the board better.

The only way i have found to center the board is to zoom from 100% to 25%, although the hidden UI problem still exists.

No thanks, chess.com can actually just center the board.

You can do whatever you want, but I'm pretty sure they won't do it, since the main reason to the board not being centered if the ad in the right part of the screen.
