This is one reason why I prefer chess.com most of the time, it feels more rewarding to advance my elo there. Besides, it has AIs easier than stockfish (so I can practice openings risk-free) since chess in America heavily relies on that site, pretty much all of my chess friends I know in real life and actually stand a chance against are on there since it’s also part social media platform. (But I have both apps on my iphone and ipad, and use lichess for its puzzles and stockfish reviews that are free for life.)

If I'm 300 on lichess, does that mean my chess.com Elo would be negative?

It has such a horrible interface compared to lichess though.
