Is it possible to disable the live game on the home screen?

WOTC - Please Save MTG Arena from Alchemy
Since Alchemy landed, I've been playing a lot more chess. The lichess client for Android is pretty awesome.

How can I get to 1700 before I die?
Playing lots and memorizing openings won't help much at your rating. Knowing opening principles helps. Doing chess puzzles in between games helps. Analyzing every game u play helps the most. It's free and easy to do on lichess.org . See if chess.com does free analysis and learning from your mistakes. I have jumped 200 points in the last year.

How common is false banning in chess?
For Lichess, you can get some sort of idea from reading the code. If I remember correctly, there's some threshold for the site suspecting you of cheating based on a variety of simple metrics (accuracy, blurring, etc) and then it gets sent to machine learning tools to analyze (here is one of them, and here's another).

Lichess - Cheaters, bots, AI-based human hybrid opponents
This is nonsense. They’re a free and open source nonprofit with no interest in commercial buyers. I’ve played on lichess for 3 years, over which time I’ve never encountered more than 1 cheater within 10 games (and normally much less than that). Because the website is open source, you can see the cheat detection they use. It’s not perfect — there is no perfect system — but it’s transparent and in my experience very good.
- A question for technologists: can we start an open-source cheat-detection engine that becomes the gold standard of cheat detection engines?
- Can we see the Lichess cheat detection stuff?
- Banned for cheating, appealed, denied. What now?
