I guess the three biggest websites for puzzles are chess.com, lichess, and chesstempo. Which do you prefer? For me overall, it's chesstempo > lichess > chess.com, though I would say chess.com's puzzle quality is a little better than lichess. Chesstempo lets me do an unlimited number of high-quality puzzles, Lichess lets me do an unlimited number of questionable quality puzzles, and chess.com limits me to 5 puzzles a day. My biggest issue with Lichess is that the puzzles are taken from random people's games, so I'll get some absolutely ridiculous position that you could never reach if you weren't trying to reach it, and then the answer will be a quiet move that doesn't seem to do anything but if the opponent doesn't find the only defending move, it's mate in 13.

Did you ever try chess.braimax.com? The puzzles are from lichess, but you can also easily add those which you fail (or that you simply like) to a spaced repetitions system, for free. And some new big features are almost ready to be released...
