The reason that Lichess is not a good site if you want to play bullet.

LAGGGGGG. I have a perfect connection but can't play good bullet because of the horrible lag. That is why my bullet rating isn't very high. :(
I already went there. On chess.com, there is no lag AT ALL. Also, on lichess, it is saying my internet is good. There is something wrong.
Maybe it's cuz you live in usa. I do and my ping is 115, but occasionally it hops around to 200's.

That lag page can't be right, I've lost on time when making premoves.
" Lag compensation
Lichess compensates network lag, up to one second per move. After your move, your average network lag is added to your clock. As a result, having a higher network lag than your opponent is not a handicap!"

If my average network lag (ANL) is higher than 1 second. It is a handicap!!

Why not increase the compensation to a maximum of 5s for example? If my ANL is 6s or more why not give me a compensation of 5s? If my ANL is 3s then compensate me with 3s.
