Maybe cos we’re now in the winter period, which means that many more people are now using the site ! …..just a thought btw !

Oh my god, slow! For the love of god chess.com you must be rolling in cash, copy from all the other .com giants and invest in your server infrastructure. Cheeky comment but I wonder if Lichess is having these issues all the time.

The site is constantly improving and updating. There are times that technology interacts in unexpected ways (after updates for example) and server infrastructure is only a small part of it

I'm glad to see that our membership fees have been re-invested into quality infrastructure.

If it's technology interacting in unexpected ways then look at your regular expressions not being optimized properly. Hey I've been guilty of it, just saying.

Don’t you all get it? There’s no “server” issue, it’s slow because of lack of real human players & the bot generator isn’t working. Most of the time you’re playing a computer.

I'm not able to start any real time game, 1min, 3min nor 10min. It's just not working for hours now. Is it just for me?

server overloaded...this never occurs on Lichess

This is not a uncommon issue and it is disgusting. This is the only website where you pay for basic stuff and in return get horrible servers. Really am considering getting a refund at this point. So disgusting. They focus more on making stupid lame videos or tweeting embarrassing stuff then they do creating a stable server.

Like answer this. YOU MAKE SO MUCH MONEY, MAKE SO MUCH PROFIT BUT CAN'T EVEN GET STABLE GODAMN SERVERS. EXPLAIN.

Good option

It is best to leave the games as they are, and not play until the servers are fixed

And better play lichess
