rating inflation

Hey Folks

I am very new non lichess and I am inclined to say that the rating system might be a tad inflated: I am a bullet only player and my rating on chess.com was beetween 1950-2050, but here I reached 2250 in a rather quick time. I've no intention about bragging about my points (But well, I am proud of them surely), I am just asking how many points I need to subtract from the rating to have the normal one back?

Cheers
It does not matter how much your rating in chess.com is. ELO rating is about statistics, hence it makes no sense to compare ratings of different populations (since players of lichess do not play against players of chess.com).

If you really like chess forget about the elo and try to enjoy your games.

I agree with Kikelius. But if you are interested my bullet rating at chess.com was about 1800 - 1900, and about 2100 at chesscube.
