On lichess rating ranks.

would Lichess ever consider making its ratings more closely to FIDE ones in classical time controls?
Mine would be like 1000, sad but it is the reality
Is it still true that your ELO here translates to roughly to FIDE ELO about 200 lower, so if you are 700 here then you would be about 500 FIDE ELO (let's just assume FIDE ELO was allowed to go that low).

Buddy, I'm retiring from chess when I hit 1000 here.

He didn't show off, I was simply asking anyone if they knew how lichess rankings work. :)
Have a good day

In my experience Chess.com rating is around 0-200 points above FIDE, and Lichess is 200-500 points above FIDE. There are other cases, however, where people are extremely active on FIDE and not so on lichess, and vice versa. There does not seem to be a standard for how high an online rating is compared to OTB, but these are just estimations :)
