You need to talk to @shashikantved. That man can give you a new perspective on anything.
I was feeling down today and then I read his posts. Now I have a reason to go on.
Magnus Carlsen gives away the title, what does this all mean?

Unlike Fischer, Carlsen has already defended his title 4 times. He has nothing left to prove to anyone. Long live the king!!
It's not like he defended it 5 times. Hmmph

Well, it's only a game to you... it's a business / career for people like Carlsen (and owners of this website).
Well, obviously it isn't a career for him, because he's given the WCC up. Do you imagine he needs chess? As much as chess needs him, because truly there are no other great players at the moment?
he's still pursuing chess, he just doesn't want to play wcc

Most World Champions didn't and the pressure to play every 2 years is ridiculous.
FIDE is ridiculous and the game would be better off without FIDE.
At least with kirsan there was this ufo connection. Now we have nothing

I saw a UFO. Didn't believe in them and I saw one over the town I live in. Stopped someone on the street and pointed it out. He saw it too. A bleedin flying saucer shaped object, probably at about 600 to 800 feet.
It's easy to believe in objects that are unidentified.
It's very hard to believe in aliens hiding behind clouds and appearing only to town drunks.

I don`t think he is the best in bullet though, I don`t remember him winning the bullet championship.

FIDE doesn't host bullet. So you probably remember right but the wrong thing.

At one point he had all 3 titles at the same time (classical, rapid, and blitz) so he probably remembers wrong.

The kid has the anti bullying copypasta and bible verses in his profile... let's just say I'm not holding my breath to read any of his arguments.

Gotta have faitha faitha faith. Baby!
Very sad day for chess. The next world champion, be it Nepo or Ding, will never have the recognition as a "real" world champion, baring Magnus quitting chess entirely or the new "world champion" consistently winning high level events above Magnus and getting a better rating.

He does every so often. He once played in a Titled Tuesday a couple of months ago.
Best wishes to Magnus Calsen! May he enjoy the things he is going to do,whatever they are.He has been doing so much for the world chess.

"Magnus carlsen gives away his title, what does this mean?"
It means magnus carlsen is not going to be officially "world champion" for much longer.
I am disappointed.
