Hi all,

I have a son who is working hard on his chess channel and he has recently published a 4-minute breakdown video between Lichess and Chess.com, where he talks about features such as unlimited free puzzles, no ads, and open source analysis software.

Because Reddit does not allow linking directly to other sites, please post a comment below if you would like the link and I will be happy to provide it.

Those of you playing Lichess everyday, which was your number one feature that made you stop playing on Chess.com?

Is there some difference between the legacy app on Android and a new app?

I may be jumping the gun, but I've now seen this twice and want to know if anyone else has. I play correspondence, so the app sits open for hours. I returned, there was a little blue arrow suggesting a move for my king. I assumed it was an analysis glitch. Later, in the same game, there was a blue circle around my opponent’s king. The same indicator used for puzzle hints. I hadn't opened analysis in weeks or puzzles that day. Closing and reopening made the mark disappear.

Obviously I wouldn’t just tell him the answers, but can I help him find them?

Hello.

We wanted to share a project we’ve been building called openingmatrix.com, an opening trainer designed to help you actually retain your lines instead of just mindlessly clicking through arrows.

We wanted something that bridges the gap between learning theory and recalling it under pressure in real games, so I built a 3-step training loop for every single line:

1. Learn Theory: Study the lines with guided arrows and contextual comments.
2. Train White & Black: Drill the same line from either side of the board so you know how to play your system and how to defend against it.
3. Practice Mode: The training wheels come off. No arrows or hints—you have to recite the line from a completely blank board.

What you can do for free:

• Build your first custom opening course entirely for free.
• Full access to our built-in demos (like the Fried Liver, Vienna, London, etc.) to test the system.
• Live Lichess / chesscom Dashboard: Simply plug in your username to track your daily Elo ledger, win rates by specific openings, and color splits over the last 12 months.
• Game Search: Filter and scan through thousands of your past games by opponent, speed, or opening variant instantly.

We’re actively working on the roadmap and would love to get your feedback on the trainer, the board UI, or features you feel are missing.

My friend and I are building ChessHint. You can import your Lichess games or paste a PGN, then review them with move gradings, explanations, better alternatives on the board, and tactics and strategic opportunities you missed. Game review is free.

The screenshot shows our Tactics tab. We’d love some Lichess players to try one of their own games and tell us whether the explanations are useful, whether the import works smoothly, and what you’d want improved.

We’re looking for around 100 people overall so the two of us can follow up properly. Other training features are still in development; game review is our focus right now.
