If you've got a drawn endgame with 2 seconds left you might as well resign on chess.com

... What if your opponent has 1.9 seconds left? tongue.png

Although I like Chess.com's forums the best....

Sorry Chess.com .... There is Less Cheating going on at LIchess.

I can't explain why... one would think being free... there would be more... but nope.

I play here at Chess.com, at Lichess and the Chessbase's server (Playchess.com) Both Lichess and Chessbase... the skill levels are normal to the ELO's ... not here. (hence I don't play a lot here)

Chess.com is far more popular.

The cheats and the smurfs will go where the most players are, I imagine.

Though, I don't point a finger at Chess.com when I encounter cheats/smurfs - I point a finger at the players themselves. They're to blame, not the website. They're the ones abusing the platform and ruining the experience for others.

Chess.com, In Lichess you can easily get to 1500, with not that much skill.

Cheese

CHESS.COM 100%!!!!!!!!

I hate to break it to you but you don't need much skill to get 1500 on chess.com either

Well ... most (established) 1500s on Lichess would probably find it too difficult to reach 1500 on Chess.com.

They'd top out at around 1200 or so here ...

And Chess.com Also has more features and a better game review.

SwordofSouls2023

Chess.com for the social side and some tourneys (UTT, Bullet Brawl etc etc.)

Lichess for playing chess in general; less lag

Chesstempo for tactics

Chessbase for openings and analyzing games

CHESS.COM!!!

Lichess does not even have game review.

They only mark the mistakes, inaccuracies, blunders and accuracies.

Not a complete game review

Why do you need a complete game review to have chess.com tell you what you did wrong ? Kinda destroys the point of you studying or analyzing in chess

* Elo not ego

Also ironically I get accused more on lichess than chess.com even with less cheaters though prob that's cause I'm underated there
