New Interface

wow i love the space for menu shortcut, awesome

Agree with HellBall #2 - the problem of 'too much clutter' was 'solved' by removing everything... surely there is a happy medium? Keep the menu (if its necessary), but bring back main feature static links.

I like Clarkey's #11 redesign.

And fully agree with Ivanchook #60 - I can understand the usual approach of waiting for people to understand (because people don't like change) - but I have also tried to like this change... just seems like functionality is reduced, which cannot be the goal?

Maybe the google analytics page views to different areas of the site will be most revealing - has there been a severe drop off?

Why do it with one click if you can do it with two or more clicks?

More i dont have to say about this - on a desktop - useless smartphone button style.

another problem i just found is there is no apparent way to browse games. i don't think just the advanced search is good enough.

Please give an option to switch back to the old interface.
It takes one more click each time you want to start a new game, which is annoying.

Nope, it doesn't. Click the lichess.org logo.

Apparently I'm the only one who likes the new menu. Some people don't seem to grasp that it's one click on a massive LiChess logo to reach the main playing area.

I love functionality being tied to my keyboard. For me this is easy - an extra mouse click for things I use less is worth the lower amount of clutter and higher elegance of the interface.

Big fan!

I enjoy it too. If any thing its easier to access unknown features of lichess like the import game (/paste), lichess opening trainer and what not!

#67 I like it too!

I don't mind the new menu, but can you disable the binding of the space key to the menu or implement an option to disable it? It's really annoying when you are used to it to scroll down the page.
Thanks for the website!
