discuss.
What's the chain supposed to do? It's not like Supes would avoid a close quarters fight with Thanos.
Superman's abilities thrive in close quarters, including his speed. He doesn't need to fly around, and I'm guessing the chain limits Thanos' defensive options (namely the energy shield).
It favors Supes if you remove the shield.

How would it cripple Supes speed blitz? Having a chain doesn't make Supes any slower, weaker or tougher.

limits his mobility, restricting the usefulness of speed. Thanos isn't exactly slow, either- it basically makes this a slugfest where Thanos' greater durability almost guarantees a win.

with the problems superman has with despero, his strength and duribility are not up to par with thanos's without a large sunamp.

I know it limits mobility, but since when did Supes need to be flying around to use speed and skill? Much of his speed displays are in close quarters.
Supes would get way more shots in than Thanos, logically that should translate to more victories for Supes.
Problem of course is people like to group Superman with guys like Gladiator et al simply because of similar power sets.
I've seen people say that if Thanos was a DC character Supes would've whooped him, mainly the say this to emphasize that PIS would have to be involved for such an event to occur.
How about that Superman is simply more than tough enough and strong enough to hang with most people? He's hang with so many powerful beings, it ridiculous to call this spite.
And sun dipping? C'mon. He sun dips to save the universe not to battle a guy who's probably his inferior in the areas of strength and speed.
