Suggestion for lichess premium: auto analysis calculation.

> Why not suggesting it as a free feature then. Lichess has promised to remain 100% free forever. I like the idea of having auto game analysis, so why not making it optional so only the ones who want it and have a strong pc/mac get it. Lichess earns money from donations and more fetaures= more people = more donations. No need to pay.

Well I'd be willing to donate $2AU a month to get the auto analysis feature.

@StartingSquare you can donate at lichess.org/patron and use fishnet to help it but lichess wont add the feature because it would require way to expensive hardware to buy and run and maintain

I guess I should seriously consider chess.com. Maybe the best chess experience just isn't meant to be free.

Nobody cares.

Yeah that's the impression I get from Lichess.

@StartingSquare the way you pitched it. Show that you know nothing of how lichess works and thats why no one likes it.
if you suggested:

Why not have auto analysis for people with strong devices that can be done while they are playing.

People would be more open to the idea

the problems would be how to define a "strong device" a list of all cpus would be alot of work.
Maybe a benchmark but where to draw the line for a pass or fail.
Also would require to rewrite fishnet so that users can do there own analysis after/during their games.

The benefit would allow people who analyze more than 40 a day /200 a week
to do it on their hardware and the instant response when game ends.

How much work is that worth idk ask the devs

Lichess is a free platform, so players don't have to spend money for higher analysis. Lichess gets the respect and popularity from it being a free platform and I truly respect the devs of Lichess for making it a free platform I think most of us don't wanna make a "Lichess Premium".

I get it, if you want features like that then you need diamond chess.com like the pros use. Lichess is for fans of free stuff, chess.com is for fans of chess.

Yes
