This is so far out of line I wonder what the background is for this issue. Lichess is not emergency dispatch software running in a 911 Call Center, if they have an outage the cost is that users can't play online chess until it is fixed. Additionally, the founder of this open source project is objectively good at what he does. Exhibit the fact that he built and hosts a top 2 online chess platform that competes well against the biggest commercial sites. How does that not lend some professional credibility.
We will have to disagree Kenneth.
Your idea of "so far out of line", would include any communication you disagree with, and is absent rational principles or social norms/mores basis, it is absurd.
I stuck to the objective issues in my previous post, you should too before making baseless claims.
Do some due dilligence on the business entities involved, peruse their github history (the deleted parts). Get a real picture about what's going on there. You'll find many contradictions if you dig.
The question on any critical IT professional's minds is how can you run the service given the resources claimed. Yes he runs the top traffic site for chess, and its done on a bespoke monolith.
You napkin math/sketch it out by required component services, and it quickly becomes clear that nothing adds up. When nothing is consistent, or supported, you examine your premises for contradictions and lies, which goes again back to credibility.
