You can enable blindfold pieces.

Oh didn't know that where is the option!?
You can set the pieces option in themes or Board and Pieces. The issue is that it's for all boards on site, so would need to be changed when needed.
I have a solution! I'm a high school student that is very passionate about helping the blind community. Currently, I'm working on a free website made specifically for blind people to play chess online or against AI that will be entirely voice-activated. This would also be targeted towards chess players that want to practice blindfolded. What do you all think about this idea?
