This is a question that comes up at least daily on this sub.

You’re probably the 5000 person to post this exact thing.

And then we all respond with “Google En Passant”.

Well Google is your friend.

Probably wise to go there first before resorting to AI for easy questions.

If you have two bishops they can switch positions with one another but it doesn't take up a turn

We need to nerf pawns on the next patch, otherwise the meta will never change

It's a known bug in chesscom, we gave it a name, en passant.
