I haven't played chess since February 2024, not once. I ragequit with a peak of 1985 because bullet makes me go insane after awhile. Yesterday I logged in, and after 2 hours of grinding, I finally got the elusive rating of 2000. I certainly feel very slow and washed at this game; I don't feel as though I am better now than I was before.

I'm curious to hear your guys' thoughts: Has there been rating inflation since ~the start of 2024?

You might actually be playing better than you think—experience can carry you even when you feel "slow".
