Oh but technically that’s not foss.
So technically Lichess is the answer, since it’s FOSS.

exactly, Lichess is great
I love 960 on lichess. Far more fun than classical
well, yes and no. Classical has and will always have a great appeal, given that it made history, and the history of the game is all classical.
However, the opening theory makes chess less fun because it's about memory, but at non professional levels it's not really an issue imo, because you can do very good in the first 8-10 moves not by memory, but by learning the spirit of that opening, the motives and the typical moves and plans.
I was never a chess player as a youngster, so I find that 960 evens the playing field, as I don't know any classical chess openings. I suppose I just find the 960 version 960 times more interesting with 960 possible starting positions. I play it for hours every night, but I still have a low rating! For me, 960 is a more interesting game.
came here to say lichess 💜♟️
