I made a Lichess Extension which will blow your mind.

Okay, you guys asked me a lot about Lichess support. Almost 20 emails, form responses. I get it! And here it is.
It has almost the same features as ChessHelper, but a bit more...

- Customization: Change the look and feel of Lichess.org with new themes (x6), pieces (x23), and boards (x36).
- Notification Control: Say goodbye to profile and other notifications.
- Modern Layout mode: Lichess.org Layout built by modern standards. Find "New Match", and "Account Settings" faster.
- Full Screen & Fixed Mode: Enjoy Lichess in Full Screen mode or with a fixed board layout. No more false scrolling in the match.
- Coordinates on each square: Learn notation & squares faster.
- Disable Chat: No more trolling and distress. Stay calm :)
- Font Customization: New fonts (x12) + the original one. Choose which one you like more.
- Disable Board Moves Scrolling: Very useful for laptop trackpads, especially in Hyperbullet.
- Focus Mode: Smaller Interface with a bit bigger board.

I made it as fast as possible, so any bug report is appreciated.

Q&A:
- Does it work on Arcade / Normal animation mode?
- Yes, it does, and pretty well :)

- Is it free?
- Yes, this extension is free and always will be.

- Does it work on Safari?
- Currently no, but I’m working on it. Also, it costs 100$ to host your Safari extension, so if you want it faster any donation is appreciated.

- I really like your Extension, how can I donate?
- Click the Donate button in the LichessHelper settings window. Also, you could donate here - www.paypal.com/paypalme/pjaworskidev. Every amount is fine, even small.

- Do you collect any data?
- No, I did not. It doesn’t even have any external resources to make it safer.

- Why CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 license? Not GNU or CC0?
- I had a similar project before, spent a lot of time, and then got my code stolen. Anyway, I don’t think that borrowing some part of the code is bad. But there a people who can literally steal your whole project and then change only the logo and name. That’s the only reason :(

- What is current browser support?
- For now, it supports Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, and MS Edge (MS is currently in Store review, but it works well). Also, I’m working on the Safari version, Android browser support & custom client for Lichess.org.

If you want to contribute an idea or an asset (boards, pieces, themes) -

Find any bugs?
Just shoot me an email at pjaworski.dev@gmail.com with a description and screenshot or video of the issue and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.
For a quicker fix, include the browser (e.g., Firefox 86.0) you're using.

Bug : When i use 3d pieces, the 3d pieces are too big. Please fix!
> This add-on is not actively monitored for security by Mozilla. Make sure you trust it before installing.

Yeah, I'll pass.
Just as an idea: Make a short youtube video showing off your extension.

I wouldn't blindly install an untrusted extension, but if I see a video with interesting/good stuff I might consider it.
I do not like it. It crashed or restarted my browser after install. Now everything is working fine (or so it seems). Can you show further data about its usage and how to donate?

You contradicted yourself. CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 is not a free license. Please say "gratis" if that's what you mean. Or better yet, actually make it free. www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw

I will never use your extension if it is not free, and I encourage others to do likewise (and the same with all non-free software).

Well, it's actually free. But, you cannot change a logo and share it as your extension. Of course you're mad :) Don't try to play this game.

Sure, I'm considering making a video about it. I can assume that it crashed not because of it, but it depends on which browser you use. Let me know if this problem repeats! And I mean, you don't have to donate if you don't like it
