What happened to lichess?

Just came back online after a year I remember during the pandemic how active lichess was people were making horseys we had so many clubs we were trying to make like the biggest clubs and stuff and now everything's dead
nothing is dead. everything is renewal

- the Bundesliga became an official Lichess league, which reached more than 500 tournaments.

- the teams have become more competitive and more "honest" since ebooks have been banned from prize pools.

- blogs have appeared and everyone can write about interesting topics, like chess tournaments, advice or simply share memories or feelings.

- the forums have become more accessible and diversified.

- the flairs have appeared, you can personalize your profile according to your emotions, your hobby or in connection with your username

if off topics were dead, you would not have bothered to look at this topic, nor write this message.

so there is still life on earth and on Lichess

Nope, we can't say anything anymore, no more freedom of speech. By the way how can you dare write we're not canceled by Wokes! ;=P
Lichess doesn't seem remotely dead. Dead as compared to what?

By the way, right this second I'm watching a squirrel warily sneak up on some food. He's not dead either.

Squirrels are terrific. Like the basketball Timberwolves. Like Liverpool footie. Like Lichess.
