Are you going to do an update? Cause' i feel like we need an update and were' on the "tip of the iceberg". especially users of lichess.

There are so many updates made by the devs, often we don ́t really recognize how much is done. https://lichess.org/changelog

I put letters from A to H on the picture above.
A: For number.
B: for opponent's name.
C: Berserk as yes or no
D: opponent's rank after the tournament is completed.
E: opponent's cumulative score eg: 2 wins out of 5
F: opponent's rating.
G: colour.
H:your score.
Hope it easy to make.
Thank you

Will Lichess add Markdown or WYSIWYG in forum posts ?

There are stats and leaderboards for every time control but correspondence. I did some digging in the forum previously and it seems to me there used to be a leaderboard for correspondence as well, why was it removed? Is cheating a concern here?

Why is Lichess called Lichess?

Why is Lichess called Lichess?
Lichess is a combination of live/light/libre and chess. It is pronounced lee-chess. Hear it pronounced by a specialist.

Live, because games are played and watched in real-time 24/7; light and libre for the fact that Lichess is open-source and unencumbered by proprietary junk that plagues other websites.

Similarly, the source code for Lichess, lila, stands for li[chess in sca]la, seeing as the bulk of Lichess is written in Scala, an intuitive programming language.
