Magnus and Penguin and Opper and Naroditsky and many other amazing bullet players now play on lichess. What a HUGE testament to the success of this platform and to Thibault for his genius and dedication in making his dream a reality.
But sadly, still... no working lag compensation, which is especially important in bullet. This has now been an issue for _years_ on lichess. They use an averaging mechanism that just does not work. I am flagged on premoves every day.
My friends and I have this term "click-flag" for lichess when you make a move, it "clicks" with the sound of the move being made on time. But then the move must travel across the ocean to France and the lichess server may then decide you in fact did not make the move in time. Then lichess _reverts your move_ and flags you.
Even though you moved on time. This is pretty bad... and not that hard to fix. If everyone were a weak player like me, it wouldn't matter. But if lichess is going to be a professional platform... fix this?!
