Yeah, there's been some strange behavior since the change, for sure.
Occasionally premoves result in bizarre situations, like pieces not displaying on the board, or captured pieces remaining on the board.
Refreshes return the board to the correct state, but in faster time controls that's not so fantastic a solution.
I'm sure the wrinkles will get worked out :)
Possible move destinations should be opt-in, not opt-out!
It is now became impossible to play without logging-in because of this distracting 'feature'.
The new sound theme sucks.
#11: "it now displays the material diff, instead of the captured pieces. It's more compact and useful: you can see in a glance that white is up a knight, but black got two pawns in compensation. This won't be reverted."
I'm less bothered about what my "score" is, more bothered about precisely which pieces have been captured. In a 1+0 game I could tell at a glance what the situation is - as one can OTB. Now it is made harder for no reason.
Bad choice.
Some pieces disappear and I need to refresh to see them again.
I have noticed some strange in-game errors similar to what you are referring to. I haven't thought of refreshing the game window, as I am playing 1 min bullet most of the time and would not want to lose because I refreshed a window... Anyways, what I've seen is I do some moves, the board shows them, then it's my turn, my clock goes down as I try to move a particular piece, but it doesn't respond, nothing happens when I try to move it, but if I move any other piece, then the other moves work... Strange... Have been reporting the situation to admin but I lack enough concentration right now and knowledge in programming/computers/chess to clearly explain the issue... Lichess is the only site I like playing on, so I hope things will go back to how they were before last night's updates.

I really appreciate all of the work the lichess moderators have been doing, but this is taking it to far, it is very hard to play bullet with the 3D because you cant click on the pieces that easily, also, some games don't finish, I played with stockfish, ran out of time, and it just waited with my time at 0 seconds indefinitely
There is also a lag displaying the green color on the destination square of your pieces. Dunno if it's my system or due to the update though...
dunno if someone already said this but the king disappeared in a 960 game i just played after long castling; the person i was playing with also had this problem in a previous game.
That's fixed now.
Hey Thibault and Clarkey i appreciate your posts and effort.
I had two new issues playing bullet, both of which have been posted by other users in this thread before:
- The game never allowed me to castle
- The other user was going to capture my pawn on his next move, so i pre-moved my knight to cover it. The game shows me that the user captured both pieces in a single move, a few moves later, it shows my knight back on his original place.
