Is 1000 a good rating?

@GMWilhelmSteinitz ... if memory serves, and I think it does, there was only one move in the 1972 world championship that could properly be called a blunder. That was the famous one by Fischer in game one. Fischer definitely played more precisely, though. If your opponent plays all "best moves" and you play all "good moves", you're going to lose.
its curious though, the 'best' move in a chess game is the move played at elo rating 99999999..... virtually Elo rating infinity.
nobody can possibly play the best moves in chess. there are only good moves, gooder moves, and even gooder moves.

There was Fischer's blunder in game 1. Cost him a piece for two Pawns, and eventually the game.
There was Spassky's 27. Qc2?? in game 5... such a bad blunder that he had to resign on the very next move, after seeing Fischer's reply.
Spassky blundered twice in the eighth game, giving away the exchange for almost zero compensation on move 15, and then blundering a Pawn for nothing four moves later.
In game 13, Spassky had an easy draw until he blundered on move 69.
The 14th game featured a bizarre double-blunder: Fischer blundered a Pawn away on move 21, and Spassky blundered it back again on move 27. I expect both players were happy to escape from that fiasco with a draw.

1000 rating is okay but its average. Who has a rating of 1000 is intermediate.
No, they r a beginner

1000 on chess.com is classified as "intermediate", although I feel like it's still beginner level.

To be more specific, this is how the chess.com rating system basically works with estimates for years of experience based on someone who spends around 4 hours a week studying chess(my opinion):
100-700: new to chess/absolute novice ~1 month experience
700-1000: beginner ~3-6 months experience
1000-1200: hobbyist ~9-15 months experience
1200-1400 weak intermediate, class “D” level player ~1-2 years experience
1400-1600 strong intermediate, class “C” level player, ~3-4 years experience
1600-1800: advanced, class “B” level player, ~5-6 years experience
1800-2000: very advanced to expert, class “A” player, ~ 7-8 years experience
2000-2100: expert level, ~10 years experience
2100-2200: Candidate Master(CM), ~ 11 years experience
2200-2400 National Masters and Fide Masters, ~12-14 years experience
2400-2500 International Master (IM), ~15 years experience
2500-2650 Grandmaster, ~ 17-20 years experience
2650-2700 Very strong GM, ~20-25 years experience
2700+ Super GM, ~25+ years experience
hope this helps
"1200-1400 weak intermediate, class “D” level player ~1-2 years experience " not really, I have been playing for about 8 months.

It depends where you were previously, it'd be terrible if you were 1200 before, if you've climbed from 800 then you're doing excellent

Just have a look at the "global" Gaussian distribution, so you see what ratings are the "most common" and if your rating is higher or lower than the average rating.
You can get there by going to your Stat page (Home > Stats) and clicking the word Global under the Leaderboard panel.
Here are some examples:

Chess.I’m normally starts you off at 1000, and lichess starts you at 1500
The simple truth is this: 950-1000 is about average for active players in chesscom's pool, as I have been told. No idea what the average for lichess' pool is, but I believe it is somewhat lower, so 1000 should be better than average there. In either case, your 400 on here is enough to beat the average bloke on the street. It depends on what you want.
In case I am wrong about lichess, I have never used it, and probably never will.

Everything is relative....
But as you can see in the global pictures, the "is 1000 good" question is not to answer global 
1000 in what? Bullet, daily....? and where ? you say Lichess.... why are you asking people from chess.com about a Lichess rating? why should we know it?

It depends on your goal to be frank. I think of it was school grades. Getting only 'Bs' is ok but you won't be given honors for it. If you want to be competitive, then you will probably want to improve to at least 1400. If you're a casual player who just wants to crush your beginner friends, 1000 is perfectly fine.
Very Beginner
Especially on Lichess
Most People On Lichess That Play A Lot Are Like 1400-1500 Rating

That is mostly in rapid, the 1400-1500 rating
If it is something else, It is okay
