An Overview and User Guide to Lichess, If Anyone Needs It
To promote the site, I started Lichess from scratch for 2026 with this video on YouTubeAs a long time user of this incredible site, I have wanted to try and give something back for ages. I don't code, so can't contribute there (yet!). Beyond a small donation and constantly recommending the site to my friends, I wanted to do something else.
So, I recorded an overview of Lichess for YouTube; a step-by-step general look at its pages and functions, from registration onwards. I wanted to share it here because it may be a useful resource for people to access. I hope to do some follow-up videos that go deeper into specific pages, like the studies page for example. For now, this is a surface level look at everything I could cover. You can see the video HERE.
FYI, there are no affiliations, sponsorships, or anything financial associated with this video or my channel. I also want to point out that I do not know everything about Lichess, nor do I use all the sites functions, this is just me offering what I can.
Doing this meant closing my old lichess profile and starting this new one. I read through the sites terms and conditions carefully, and don't think doing this has contravened any policies. I hope that promoting the site adds value to Lichess and the amazing community here.
Please do let me know what you think, and if this is useful to you perhaps consider a like on the video, or subscribe to the channel.
Cheers! Anthony (TattooKnight)
