Add Country Flag Next to Opponent’s Name During Games

[moeenuddinbhuiyan]

We would love to see Lichess add a small country flag next to the opponent’s name during games, similar to Chess.com. This feature would add an extra layer of connection with the opponent, making online games feel a bit more like over-the-board play. Knowing where an opponent is from can create a sense of community and cultural exchange, making games more engaging.

Benefits:

• Enhances the social aspect of online chess by fostering a connection between players.
• Creates a more immersive experience, similar to playing with friends in real life.
• Adds a small but meaningful touch without affecting gameplay or Lichess’s minimalist design.

Would love to hear your thoughts on this!
