I believe 10|0 is still the most popular time control but nothing has been released for years.

As far as I'm aware, it's still the most popular time control.

Its what they offer you by default, which is why I assume this is where the most players are to be found, which is why I play it.

Though I plan to switch to 15|10 someday. Especially once endgames become a thing. So far I only had ONE (in 21 games).
