Which one do people prefer? I've personally found the chess.com UI to be a lot warmer and more inviting than lichess, but I'm interested to hear people's opinions

I think the educational material is simply more user friendly and better for newbies. They'll also be in the same environment that has the most famous players. I think the interface is a bit easier and straightforward to navigate for a beginner.

Lichess is not vastly! superior or else chess.com I don't Believe would have the market share it does.

But these are just my opinions
