Addressing the Issue of the Keyboard Extension

“Your” all this time I’ve been assuming it’s talking about me because if it was my account it would be a “it” because it isn’t a living object. It wouldn’t be me playing them , it would be my bots pressing the keys. (Or touching the screen)
The hypothetical bot dosent not help me improve, its just beats things easier for me.
One clarifying question. If you attempt an illegal move with the existing keyboard interfaces, where is the determination made that the move is illegal? Does it happen on the client, or does the illegal move get sent to lichess whereupon lichess rejects the move?
Mouse, Touchpad, keyboard are all different input methods. The KB ext isn't created or maintained by Lichess but it is currently allowed. But feel free to continue your debate.
