Also important to note that your opponent's rating deviation is higher. Had it been the same you would've lost / gained the same amount of points. As stated in the FAQ: "The deviation is the level of confidence the system has in the rating. The lower the deviation, the more stable a rating is." Put simply, your rating deviation is based on the number of rated games played recently and lowers the more you play.
You can find your current classical rating deviation, which at the moment is 64.04, here:
lichess.org/@/Mario-0/perf/classicalI will also add . . . The logic behind altering ratings with draws is that ratings ideally reflect "true" skill level. If two people of different ratings draw, based on that single game the players were equal so the rating system (Glicko-2 is used here) equalizes their ratings to some degree based on the difference in ratings and rating deviation.
