  OGS is the closest thing I’ve found to lichess but it’s quite good! https://online-go.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 18 days ago

• After AI beat them, professional Go players got better and more creative

• Awfull experience with learning Go

• Humans vs. Stockfish’s eval function

  The easiest way to play against Stockfish is perhaps on https://lichess.org/, but it's not the only chess engine that evaluates positions with a neural network. Source: 5 months ago

• The DGPT season opener will be sponsored by chess.com!

  If you actually like chess, try lichess.org, the free and open-source, no ads ever, premium alternative. Source: 5 months ago

• I got a Chessnut Evo to review, here are my thoughts

  The Chessnut Evo works almost flawlessly (I did not experience this issue but people have reported having ChessnutVision stop working on occasion which requires turning on/off to fix) with popular chess sites (officially supported are chess.com, lichess.org, Chess Kid and Chessable). I experienced no major lag when playing games on Lichess through the board There is the unavoidable delay of physically moving... Source: 5 months ago
