Chess on Gemini β€” Looks like it's not lively, huh? [gemini link] I think without time control the games are problematic. The best option is just playing in a thread somewhere on Station or BBS. You can also chat though but the game requires an additional board or analysis page opened.

Chaturaji β€” Recently made a local chaturaji community. Not the ancient game but as close as possible to chess β€” 4 player game format. It has curious mechanics as consequence of additional temps and more than two players. Such as dead pieces, dead king or checkmate is not the end in some cases. You can actually try it out on Chess dot Com variants but they use point system.
