If you like to play chess, check out www.lichess.org

It's free and open source, and it's very easy to find a game there, no matter what level you play.

It doesn't display annoying ads.

It always makes me sad that chess.com was the site that blew up. I always had to convince my friends to use lichess when I played back in school.

All of the games ever played on lichess along with puzzles, evaluations etc are also open and free to download at database.lichess.org

The site's founder and lead developer Thibault also often streams the development of the site on his Twitch channel!

I'm honestly suprised sometimes at how free, open and transparent this site is, truly an inspiration for anyone looking to build an ethical platform.
