Just passing by to signal-boost the creator of Lichess, a single person who, out of frustration with FICS et al., made an amazing product out of the blue, released it under an open source license and delivered an UX that blew its competitors right out of the water.
All it takes one person with skill and generosity to completely change a community for the better. I hope to become one day this kind of person.
