#lichess — Public Fediverse posts

Lichess has always been the most #accessible #chess website for #blind #screenreader users. You can play games there, analyze them, even do puzzles. What you can't do, though, is learn the absolute basics there.
The tutorials are not accessible, and this has been a problem for years from what I know.
I'm fixing that. I have the platform running locally, and already fixed the " collect the stars"-style tutorials so they work with screen readers. Once i'm happy with these changes I will submit a pull request upstream... let's hope they feel up to merging it once I'm done here. #lichess #accessibility #blindChess #webdev #openSource #tech

- Player joins 15min + 15sec increment chess 960 game
- Player plays fast inaccurate moves
- Player gets in a losing position from inaccurate moves
- Player complains that they would not like to play for that long because they have work to do
- Player acknowledges losing position in the chat box
- Player claims I got lucky
- Player continues to stall complete lost position
- Player implicitly accuses me of cheating
- Player blunders mate in #1
- Player resigns as soon as he blunders mate
- Player continues playing other games

Absolute cinema.

Un article très sympa qui compare les modèles des deux principales plateformes d'échecs en ligne : chess.com (entreprise commerciale) et lichess (association loi 1901, qui fournit un service comparable en fonctionnalité mais avec 100 fois moins de budget et 300 fois moins d'employés, en misant tout sur le logiciel libre et les communs)

Este es un "pequeño" tutorial para aprender cómo iniciar una partida de #ajedrez en #Lichess, así como otras funcionalidades de este fantástico programa. Está centrado en el modo "correspondencia", porque es el que usamos en los torneos de #FediAjedrez, pero te puede servir también para otros modos.

¡Empecemos! 🧵#hilo

Y a des gens sur Lichess ici qui veulent jouer des parties par correspondance ?

Pas d'ordi évidemment, on se fait confiance sinon autant jouer contre l'ordinateur...

Correspondance car c'est pas facile d'être en même temps sur Lichess et ça permet aussi de réfléchir un peu aux coups si on veut, c'est sans pression !
