Cheating Crisis

What is happening with this website? I can't win a single game anymore in the past 5 months. When I analyse the games with lichess becomes clear that around 50% plus of the players are cheating against me, and they do it all day long, not a single ban. Nowadays it's embarassing to play in this platform.

There is no more humans playing here. I lost 300 elo in 5 months, while continuing solving puzlles and trainning. This is past beyond ridiculous

Play 3 min Blitz, fewer cheaters in faster time controls. I also doubt half your games have cheaters.

The perception of cheating levels is orders of magnitude more than the actual amount. The vast majority of games and players are clean
