Rare "bipartisan" win: Lichess tweets about a Chess.com stream and Chess.com acknowledges
Pychess seems to be maintained by a completely separate entity. The name is also incredibly badly chosen, because PyChess is a well-known, unrelated interface GUI written in Python + GTK.

Chess GUI for Ubuntu
I am Using Ubuntu 20.04 and want a chess GUI, tried Pychess, but it sadly doesn't work with editing time control, so I created a issue https://github.com/pychess/pychess/issues/1910. Can someone please help me to find an alternative chess GUI instead of pychess for me?

The CrowdStrike file that broke everything was full of null characters
I play one of those games that doesn’t strongly enforce anti-cheating, and I agree with you that it’s a huge detraction compared to games with strong anti-cheat.
But I strongly disagree about the use of invasive client-side anti-cheat. Server-side anti-cheat can reduce the number of cheaters to an acceptably low level.
See for example how lichess detects and aids in detection of cheaters: https://github.com/clarkerubber/irwin
And chess is a game where I feel like it would be relatively hard to detect cheating. An algorithm looking at games with actors moving in 3D space and responding to relative positions and actions of multiple other actors should have a great many more ways to detect cheating over the course of many games.

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?
