wow, you are a beast, i lost against a 5 years old girl at blilndfold
To be fair that isn't blindfold. Anyone with minor amount of practice can play half blind where the board is sitting in front of you. Lichess needs to make a way to really play blind fold. I use to do it on FICS. They have away that if you restrict yourself properly you only see the move in text come in. It is theoretically legal to review the move list if you want, but that is for people who are under lets say 1800 blind.
I was I believe 1700-1800 blind standard and 1400 blitz. I probably had to review the move list once or twice per game over 40 moves. I know it's difficult to do this here because of how dependant on graphical elements this site is. But maybe if they can implement text to speech both ways they can accomplish a true blind element.
I did try the blind here and it was pretty easy in comparison. I have done blind in my club and blind on FICS and it was comparable.
Not to take away from your effort though, once you add multiple boards in blind play here it becomes extremely difficult. Well done.

@MeWantCookie I just found the feature and thought I would try it out. I have played blindfold against kids at the library and sometimes win sometimes I lose. I practice with my friend to memorize games my friend will say a move from a sheet I give him and I will respond with the best/correct move. It helps to memorize new openings.
