Erm what #20

I have a supply of eye bleach if needed

I don't understand the bit about 'depends on what community you play', As a newbie I just hit the 15/10 button for a rapid game. It doesn't make sense to me that a player rated below 1000 can seem to understand the first 6 or 7 moves against the Pirc, Caro-Kann defence or the Ruy Lopez or Vienna openings, almost perfectly without any inaccuracies. I'm not saying they don't make mistakes or blunders as the game progresses but don't all of us under an ELO of say 1800. I would think that both Chess.com and Lychess are determining our level based on how we play after a sufficient number of games, Surely they can't be hugely different. If they are, and we play on both websites, how are we meant to properly understand our estimated rating. Perhaps it's that I played so long on Lychess first. All a bit confusing.
