Yes, please! It's so dumb that there is no default option like that. I really like ~10 minutes, but I hate playing without increment
10 with increment

Woww
15|10 is the FIDE rapid standard

Why not just make a custom game?
I've tried a custom game, but it takes awhile or never to match up. Depends if anybody else requests it when I do. If it was an option, then I think it would be popular.
I’ve thought about doing that but I decided against it not because of trouble matchmaking but because I want to get used to time controls that are actually common. 15|10 ended up working good for me anyways once so got used to it. The only problem is that I have to make sure I don’t have to do anything in the next 50 mins before starting a game.
Yeah, I got used to 15|10, but I still think 10|5 is superior for casual games, just because you don't need to have that much time, 25-30 minutes should be enough

I now play live chess on a rival site because there's no standard 10|5 here
I'm thinking about it too when my premium here ends

I just run "gold" instead of "diamond" because the correspondence tournaments here are good. But chess.com has lost income because of this and I think I'll probably play just correspondence here without a premium account when it expires. I'm a life patron of the other site, and they have everything , so it is too late for chess.com now.
Is 10 min with 5 sec incr considered rapid?
Well, 15 min with 10 sec increment is considered rapid on chess.com, and its much longer than 10+5

They say that 10 minutes is the most popular time control on chess.com. But how about a 10/5 default option on the app? Other sites do it.
