What is a good lichess rating?

I think 600+ is rookie, 1100+ is beginner, 1600+ is intermediate, 2000+ in advanced, 2300+ is expert and 3000+ is super-GM
a rating that reflects your current skill level is the best rating.
600+ Pawnie
1100+ Horsey
1600+ Bishopie
2000+ Rookie
2200+ Queen
2400+ King
2600+ Super King
2800+ Super Duper King
3000+ Ultra Super Duper King
3300+ Ultra Extra Special Mega Giga Hyper Super Duper King
depends on your rating
if you are 1000, 1001 is a good rating,
if you are 2999, 3000 is a good rating

also i'd say
600-1300- beginner
1300-2000- intermediate
2000-2400-advanced
2400-2700- master
2700+ - grandmaster
Ah this question has been asked many times. The correct answer is that only classical ratings count - quicker games are lots of fun but don't matter really.

1900 + strong player
1700-1900 competent
1500-1700 almost competent
1300-1500 nob
1100-1300 useless
Under 1100 useless nob
@Bellendo
based on your rating, it really looks like you are selecting a metric ad hoc, intended specifically in order to rate yourself as "competent" ...

(edit) and that's what always happen, btw. Whenever people have this discussion, they always put the threshold precisely where they are.

Not really, they could just beat a 600 a bunch of times.
Going up 1 rating point doesn’t mean much.

That makes no sense. Rookie is someone who has just started and this is inaccurate. Only 1 person has 3300+
A good rating is 1 point higher than what you currently are.

If ratings are important to you.
