There are 3 things I prefer on lichess: studies, free puzzles and tournaments. The rest is better on chess.com

Fully agree on the studies. I’m a diamond member here and also a member of ChessTempo, so free puzzles are not much of an inducement.

I’ve played tournaments both places and suggested improvements for both. In arena tournaments, games abort when arena ends here (leading to many problems). Pairing in arena on Lichess is often glacial. Both sites can do better.

with lichess you are not as much worried about how much your elo goes up so you play better

lichess´s community is a bit small but but more healthier and better than chess.com´s

Chess , com.

No comparision in my opinion.

This is the best chess site in the world.

lichess>chesscom because
1)it's too laggy here to play 3+2 and 5+5 and lichess has lag compensation for that.
2)ads are frustrating here (even tho they're blocked)
3)because lichess is just free, forever without any paywalls and here, you're greeted with a membership offer, blocking many things needed for a learner behind a paywall.

lihess for sure. i like the puzzle games at chess.com, but It's not worth paying money monthly for it. I'd be willing to make a one-time payment Without any future updates. I hate subscriptions

Lichess got free puzzles but other than that I prefer chess.com

They treat you like garbage.

And they have authoritharian rules here.

You have to double check what you say, otherwise they mute you straightaway or the Gestapo Martin Stahl comes and locks the thread.

truly couldnt have said it better

I do tactics at lichess. I’m 2200 there, but I’m 2600 on cc so I guess I like cc better. On chesstempo I’m only 1864 in the blitz set. So that’s the worst one for me. I’ll stay with cc.

In chess.com there are many types of human looking bots but in lichess there is only stockfish bots

I prefer Chess for almost everything, but I really like the analysis function on the other. I'm glad there's some competition, so having both is a good thing.

Also in chess.com we can see all the moves that we play like Best Move but Lichess only shows the Eval Bar .
