I am new to lichess but not new to playing chess online. I have played on several sites down the years, each with their own strengths and weaknesses, and I have to say that on first impressions lichess compares very favourably to the best of them.
I'm sure I will discover the inevitable small issues and grumbles over the next few weeks and months but I would be grateful for any advance warnings any of you more experienced users can give me; tips on what to try and what might be best avoided.
One thing I have noticed already and been really pleased to find is the ability to import pgn files of games played elsewhere, to play through and analyse them. With a built in engine to help! I have been trying to find a reliable (and free) pgn viewer to use with the chrome browser without any luck so this is a big plus for me.
I think I'm going to like it here...
