Chess.com or Lichess?

Lichess

I think chess.com. But it is easier to get rating on lichess. u r 1700 on chess.com. u will easily be 2100+ on lichess!

Server connection ...

No maybe some people are but others not

It is not as easy as you think

Hmmm...

Lichess 100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000%

When you have more than 100 per hundred …

haha!

I'm always confused by the "Lichess is better!" users who, for whatever reason, still choose to hang out here.

If I thought Lichess was better, I'd hang out there. You wouldn't find me on Chess.com ...

Just cause lichess is better doesn't mean both websites arnt good

Lichess and Chess.com have many different aspects of being a chess website and it is only fair if you consider the data as a whole.

That's a fair point.

Though I've seen some who declare that there's nothing good about Chess.com, and argue that Lichess is better in every way ... yet they choose to chat on the forums here, and to play here for hours every day ... It baffles me.

"Lichess is better with everything, it's not even a contest! Lichess 1000%!!" - says the player who is avoiding Lichess to hang out here, instead ...

Lichess:

• Completely free.
• Can play unlimited games (against bots and humans) and puzzles (Streak, Storm, Racer and Daily Puzzle).
• Has a lot of learning material with basic tools like an analysis board.
• Has a fair community.
• Has Insights with less information.
• Way less customizable.

Chess.com:

Free:

• Needs a paid subscription for all tools.
• Has ads.
• Allows Unlimited games.
• Allows 1 game review per day
• Has basic analysis tools.
• Allows 5 puzzles per day. 

Paid:

• Contains the benefits (only) of the free version with:
• Unlimited Puzzles with (Rush, Battle and Daily Puzzle).
• Also has lot of learning material with more tools like game review which includes practice puzzles and key concepts for you to learn and also highlights the mistakes and helps you to see where you've gone wrong.
• Has Insights about a lot of information.
  
  General Differences (advantages):
• Chess.com has way more customizability. The page is up to your creativity (From the background, to profile picture, to board, to pieces. You can even set up your home display page in your desired fashion).
• Chess.com has more settings. For example: A blocked members page, A following members page.
• Allows connected account (very handy feature).
• Allows more ways to connect (socially).
• Has chess.com Beta.
• Chess.com has a standard way of catching cheaters. Although the site is full of them they probably won't last long. However on lichess, even if there are cheaters, they could stay for a long time.

So, if you have a passion for chess and are willing to spend for getting better, chess.com is the way forward.

But if you don't have that much of a passion and want only basic tools to learn then its best if you choose lichess.

So in the end, all the conclusions come to you.
You may like a separate website but it doesn't mean that everyone should.
The conclusions come to you.

That's an assertion, not an argument. Arguments deploy evidence.

They hang out here because clubs and forums are better.

Your forgetting the fact that even though cheaters "stay longer " lichess puts them in a cheater pool

Your also forgetting that lichess has overall less cheaters than chess.com

so, is the internet now fixed for the next 10 years? it is either lichess or chess.com?

Um no
