However: What you wrote doesn't make it any better. And I see that you (like some others) have not understood my contribution intellectually. This "we" doesn't make it better.
It's not the developers who should decide what is needed, it's the users (and top management, in certain cases)
The developer is also paid for his work in some way. Saying you don't want something you're being paid to do also means refusing to work. Good work only comes from doing something with love. So I'm quite concerned about the future of Lichess, in terms of developer sentiment.
That's the point - unlike you, I don't limit or prescribe the options .
I want usability and users to decide, even if it's not necessarily the ones I imagine - You, on the other hand, want to decide for the user what is to be developed.
Like I said, that's hubris.

I believe you that you didn't understand the AI thing. One more reason why it would be good if you understood the other point
Please don't take it personally (lu2) . I have decades of experience in customer-oriented strategic IT organization and programming.

The whole post seems like justification of lazyness. No weight in plane equals no passanger in plane. If "WE" decides whether the only full-time developer @thibault can code that and run it easily or not and then rename it as "EVAULATION FORMULA", I suggest you to don't ask for feedbacks because it's pointless.
@Aliyyiakbar he is also a human, not a superman or God)

I mean chess variant. Lichess has 8 already, but there are much more. (I say that as the person with sparkling ideas). @abhinavk7076 knows what I’m telling )))))

My TWO favorite lichess features are:
(1) slowing the animation speed; and
(2) hiding ratings; ... and
(2a) Zen mode; and
(2b) tactics by individual openings; and
(2c) Studies; and
(2d) playing out positions at varying degrees of SF difficulty; and
(2e) dark mode;
(2f) auto "good game" when I lose or draw becuase I wish I was graceful enough to do it in that moment; and
(2g) "Chess Insights";
(2h) game databases & filters;
(2i) "Practice" for "Rook Endgames," and "Checkmate patterns"; and
(2J) deleting imported games;
(2k) Broadcasts;
(2l) "Learn from your Mistakes";
(2m) graphic for "Move Times";
(2n) graphic showing inaccuracies, mistakes, and blunders;
(2o) Studies on "Interactive" with "Preview" (to play "guess-the-move")
(2p) adding Broadcast games to Studies;
(2q) speak the move;
(2r) banning cheaters & trolls;
(2s) replying to topics...

Damn, and I was just finishing up my "We want all the features" blog.
I guess I won't be publishing it now.

I don't care whether he's just a normal person or not. If he's developer, He should be a superhero. Nothing is free these times bro if you decided to do something like it doesn't mean we'll also take that as an execuse and don't suggest new ideas. Atleast add some advertisement wth.

But Thibault IS top management.
(Not to mention that it’s silly to think that top management always knows better than the guys actually working with the code...)
I did not understand the AI comment either. Modern ‚AI’ isn’t millions of lines of code. It doesn’t really make sense to bring it up in this context.
