Hi guys, because we are in the middle of 2nd LockDown (at Europe) i will present you 4 big platforms to play chess
1) LICHESS
It launched at 20 June 2010 by Thibault Duplessis a real life anarchist and it is a free and open source platform.
I play at this platform the last 2 years because it had a good mobile application.
It is totally FREE and there are simul with GMs, IMs, FMs and NMs totally free everyday.
Also you can create studies and teach your real life studends on line.
There are also some puzzles to train your self.
2) CHESS.COM
It launced at May 2007. It may be the biggest chess server - forum etc.
I have never used this server but i can see the strongest players play here.
It has also puzzle sessions.
3) CHESS24
It launched at 2014 by German GM Gustaffson and Enrique Guzman.
You can play for free but to access the training videos you must give a 100 euro sub/ year.
But if you sub you can access high quality videos of GMs and ex world champions.
Also you can play Banter Blitz with Magnus Carlsen (if you do not know him, just google him)
4) INTERNET CHESS CLUB
It is the first chess server (lanched at 2005) and the first intoduced capitalist at chess (paid sub at 65 dollars/year)
I was paying many years this server because i could find strong players to play (no you do not find) and i was training with the 2-3 scheduled simul per week. Also the training videos it has i thinκ are the best.
5) You can also play chess at FICS and BABASCHESS but the last years have lost their users.
6) Also you can play chess at dod, but you play there only to meet other persons.
If you like chess tip me, and as NM i am i may upload more info about chess.
