I wish there was a way to hide my own (+opponent) rating

I'm trying to get back into chess having not really played for the last ten years or so, but I find I'm too obsessive about the rating - like if I come up against a player with a higher rating I just assume I'm going to lose and I probably play with a negative mindset. even when the opponent is lower rated tbh recently I still expect to lose. And like today I played a few games for the first time in a week or two and they didn't go well and my rating is down like 50 points and it just makes me feel **** like why do I do this, why am I trying to play chess again? I wish there was a way you could hide ratings - it's fine if they're there in the background somewhere and you can check every few weeks or months but I wish they could be hidden for each user if they so wished.

If it makes any difference I play on phone

I would also clarify I don't mean hide my rating from my opponent - I don't mind if they see my rating if they want to see ratings that's fine, I just don't want to routinely see my own rating all the time and see how many points I drop each time I lose

You can always just play unrated games and not think at all about your rating, but yeah true, not many seeks are there for that, huh. Yeah, I think points seriously are pointless, and would be far happier had this site their setup something like BEGINNING I II III  INTERMEDIATE  I II III  ADVANCED  I II III . 

There is a thing called “focus mode” on other platforms that hides everything except the board. Unfortunately it is unavailable on mobile, last I checked.

You should be able to use Focus Mode if you use a browser on your mobile rather than the dedicated app. I use Chrome on my phone to access the site and it works well

Estimados programadores, reporto que el sistema se dale solo o la persona cuando se ve perdida lo saca, igualmente hay muchas jugadas que después de jugar sigue corriendo el tiempo. Ahorita con el tema de la competencia de divisiones como es posible que jugadores hagan 2000 puntos en 5 horas

Great idea! I don't see any downside. Even seems easy to implement.

So easy that its already there!

just use this js to remove the rating element in tempormonkey extention.
Got it from chat GPT

}
}

// Run the function immediately
removeTagline();

// Also run the function whenever the DOM changes
new MutationObserver(removeTagline).observe(body, { childList: true, subtree: true });
