Beta Tester application

It would be a lot better if there was a formal application and when accepted, you get free diamond to test new features (some of them) and Chess.com Beta Tester Badge with an icon in your profile, if it was released, I would be the first one to send application happy

I know it would be a lot harder to become a tester after that but why not?

id wish that chess.com beta members should get a free membership for as long as they are a beta tester so that we can use all the chess.com features so that we can test the beta things that are member only and also so we can give feedback on the features that are already made but for members only

Yeah that would be great even though only a few people will get it but why not?

I really don't believe that. This is going to be a big problem over time, because players are just going to pick up beta testers for getting diamond membership and not for really helping developers. Those who are developing know that, and probably that was the reason why you don't receive any membership.

That's a completely different thing. You're talking about donations and Chess.com supposedly being "greedy". I'm talking about Chess.com paying Diamond Membership to those helping with beta testing.
In my opinion, I just don't like that Chess.com doesn't have a promotion for students, but they're not greedy for just not doing that. Compare the other platforms, as Chess.com actually is not the best comparison. Chess.com is not meant to be completely free, they need to pay developers, content creators, Admins and GMs to share.
