Very enjoyable talk, thanks for sharing. Funny (amusing) to hear that lichess' competitors would pay professionals not to pay on lichess. Perhaps unsurprising in the era of influencers?

That is true, nevertheless, many of the same Grandmasters still play using anonymous accounts. For obvious reasons, we should not point out which accounts these are.
