Can no longer refuse rematches?

#10 I agree! I can't understand why the previous rematch solution was changed to this.

Also for newbees there is nothing indicating you have got a rematch request.

For experienced users something that flashes slowly takes longer time to recognize than a message saying you have a rematch.

And as you say someone might wanna play just one single game and wanna do something different on his comp then and only want an option to communicate the declining to the opponent so he/she doesn't have to sit and wait for something.

The problem is that Lichess is a relatively simple site, the developers are so short of ideas on how to improve the site, they choose to make ridiculous changes like this one. Trying to fix things that aren't broken.

Getting rid of a button that declines rematches and telling you to just leave the page.

Bravo, developers.
