		lhorie on Oct 7, 2015 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: 100M games played Wow, congrats @ornicar! Is that comment that lichess.org is the second largest chess site on the web true? I was happy to learn of its existence last year when you mentioned on twitter that you were using Mithril.js, and I never realized how big lichess had become since then. Great work!

According to Alexa, it is. And by far. http://chess-links.org/

I don't play as much chess that much anymore, but ICC (chessclub.com) was the king (and I'd guess that it still is).

You don't play via the website though. Same for other chess servers (FICS, etc).
