I would always say chess.com but after losing my last two games because chess.com randomly disconnects me while I have perfect connection to the website (only disconnect from the game itself) I might just move to lichess tbh.
That's a server issue the servers probably laggy on your end(or chess.coms ) even if the connection is fine thats mostly why I only play bullet on lichess the occasional 3 second lagg spike

I started using Lichess for bullet, but I don't like the fact that you can't customize the board. Not enough contrast for me.

Lichess Arena pairings are too slow.

For me they aren't i get 1800-2200s all the time in arena pairings if you get like top 10-30 it should be consistant
But if your 2500+ they are probably too lol but you can always practice your speed and berserk even if they are too low

I’ve run Arena tournaments on Lichess for groups of students and had more than half of the students waiting to get paired.
I’ve played in tournaments with 1000 participants and waited five minutes for a pairing.
Neither of these things happen on chessdotcom where I’ve rarely had to wait twenty seconds for a game.

True the pairings can be a bit slow though I have never had an issue where it took longer than a minute to two
If you actually look for good arenas on chess.com they are better though more at risk of getting things like cheaters than lichess
Although there are cheaters in every site, cheaters on yahoo normally had very high ratings. As I was a mere beginner, I didn't have to worry about cheating that way. If you were truly that strong where you were allowed to be play against high rated yahoo players with colors red, then you must be a very strong player.
All the comments on Yahoo chess are good but maybe we should remove it from our talk?
Yahoo chess now:
