I think now Lichess is better in standard chess but Chess.com is much better in variants.

I have beaten more than 200 titled players on Chessdotcom. I doubt I’ve faced even a dozen on Lichess.

I don’t play variants.

wdym you beat 200 Titled players? arent u only 1800?

That includes all time controls, including correspondence. Most of the wins are in blitz, where many titled players hover near 1800.

oh. stuff like NM or WCM?

237, lichess has studies, which are kinda like lessons

Some are very good. Alas, some are terrible. Sorting the wheat from the chaff can be time consuming.

I almost always play only on chess.com and I think chess.com is better. But there are a few things I like better on liches and chess.com could integrate them:
- Organization of themed tournaments
- Daily regular Swiss tournaments
- Opening explorer of all games played

My pros for Chess.com:

  • Better presentation.
  • More "western" forums.
  • More widely used by titled players.

My pros for Lichess:

  • Free analysis.
  • More "international" userbase.
  • Open Source.

The question is controversial and difficult to answer for good reasons.

I agree @superstituous

By "presentation" you mean UI, I suppose. Many seem to prefer chess.com's, I have no idea why. I really prefer lichess UI.

Another pro of lichess is that it is way less buggy.
