How drastic of a difference is the elo system between the two of these top chess platforms?

200 rating points more or less. People who are 1000 on chessdotcom are usually around 1200 on lichess and 800 FIDE

#2 800 FIDE doesn't exist, the minimum is 1000

Yeah it varies, but it’s usually around 150-250 points higher on lichess. It’s definitely well known in the chess community that when people tell you their rating and they say “1800” but it’s a lichess rating people are far less impressed.
