The "Currently playing" icon

@YusifPanahov said in #2:

How about adding a "Currently playing" icon? It will light yellow when the player is playing at the board at the moment. It will be easier this way, and maybe people who want to write something to the player will see that he is playing and wait until the player finishes playing.

It's a good idea. However, I think many players are simply already accustomed to the current design, and then it might be a bad idea. If the majority (as is the case now) is in favor of this idea, then that's fine. I'm for it!

Your idea is so brilliant not a single person disliked it!
(even more impressive considering it is on the feedback forum)

Maybe would be even cooler is if, the green light, or patron logo flashed, indicating currently playing.

Just adding my two cents here - flashing effects or even changing gradients maybe are not the best for photosensitive users

You're welcome to try the GitHub issue tracker although I don't think Chesscom has this feature either.
