Thank-you Martin Stahl. I didn't know. However, I still suggest a pirate flag. :D
Suggestions for new chess.com features!
Move feedback option is now a premium option inself analysis please remove it it's help so many people who don't have subscription
My understanding is that is planned to remain for Platinum and Diamond
I would like to be able to save and drill opening repertoires, similar to the opening training feature on chesstempo.com.
Could you add the feature to favourite some games in your match history? Sometimes I wanna look back at some games of interest. I want to keep my best matches so to say.
Please implement "Kings Right" chess variant. Same rules. Same notation. The only difference is you swap the starting position of the Black King and Black Queen. Both Kings are located to the the right of the Queen. Everything else is the same. You'll probably be amazed at what this does to opening strategies.
they already let u create variants
also, could yall PLEASE add the ability to make 2 bots play eachother (like martin vs martin or wally vs isabel)
In the "Solve puzzles" section, the new addition of voice-over on the task and result is really irritating. Please please cancel this
I’ve been playing on Chess.com for almost 9 years, and honestly, one thing keeps ruining the experience over and over again. Many players, as soon as they realize they are losing, don’t resign — they simply abandon the game. Sometimes you have to wait for the clock to run out, and other times they leave immediately. Either way, the game ends in a frustrating and unsportsmanlike way. This happens constantly, and it’s not a rare issue. Why is there still no clear statistic showing how a player loses their games? There should be a visible distinction between: losses by resignation losses by abandonment (timeout/disconnect) Even better, this information shouldn’t be buried in statistics. It should be clearly visible on the player’s profile, right under the avatar, as a simple indicator of player behavior. That way, everyone instantly knows what kind of player they’re facing. Right now, all profiles look the same, even though behavior can be completely different. Adding this kind of transparency would improve accountability, respect, and overall sportsmanship on the platform. If a player regularly abandons games instead of resigning, it should be immediately visible. I’m sure many players are tired of this and would support this change. If you agree, please show your support — let’s make Chess.com a more respectful and fair environment for everyone.
I find the puzzle ratings way too harsh. You complete 4-5 puzzles correctly to gain 15 rating and with just one mistake you lose your progress. That leads to a massive rating drop in the long run. I was near 2000 a year ago, and now I am down to almost 1000 because i get 1/6 or 1/7 puzzles wrong. That really demotivates me and many others. Thank you.

Try changing the Difficulty option in Settings > Gameplay > Puzzles to Hard or Extra Hard and you will get more balanced outcome
A week or so ago, the custom bot challenge options were removed from the site. One of these options enabled the evaluation bar while playing bots and having it visible provided instant feedback. Sometimes the evaluation bar unexpectedly drops or jumps after a move and this is a clear hint to think further about why a move is either winning or losing. I found the eval bar feature during bot play extremely valuable for training. Check out this #chess forum: Visible Evaluation Bar when Playing Bots - https://www.chess.com/forum/view/site-feedback/visible-evaluation-bar-when-playing-bots via @chesscom I hope they bring it back. Thanks!

i hope chess.com brings that WHOLE THING back
Please, could you add a pirate or/and non-nation flag for those that not feel represented for any country?
There's an International flag
