I hit 2600 puzzle rating, is that good?
Sort:
It looks to me like the puzzle ratings reflect how many you have completed. As such, they are more like a participation trophy than a measure of chess playing ability.

I solved hard puzzles in the top 1% last year.
It's certainly a lot more impressive than remembering the first 15 best moves of an opening.

The highest rated puzzle player is about 65,000 rated. I call that membership.
yeah, 65400 i think/
also of course 2600 is decent, i'd say that's equivalent to 1700 rapid.
my peak is 2600 and my peak rapid is like 1640 so yeah.
"of course 2600 is decent, i'd say that's equivalent to 1700 rapid."
Disagree. I've been 2696 for puzzles but never even been 1500 rapid.
I think that puzzles will improve your play but I don't think there is any direct correlation, and definitely nothing like 2600 = 1700.
I just hit 4700 in puzzless is it good?

I think I hit 3300, but I just don’t like cc puzzles. After like 3000, they start to get really stupid. They just aren’t real tactics anymore, it just attack, defense, ridiculous mates, and quiet moves.
At some point there is no way to get around this, but some puzzles that are actual tactics, are genuinely hard.
But of course, it’s a computer choosing what qualifies as a puzzles. Can’t have any duals, and anything with 1 correct winning move is chosen.
Lichess is slightly better in this, but something like CT ART and books are so much better.
I like chess school 2 and 3 if anybody wants a recommendation.

That is not the puzzle rating. Your puzzle rating is 1349, I just checked it. Rating of 3600 in puzzle is already about the strength of a FIDE Master. Good luck solving them anyway!

I’m 1200 in 5 min but I rarely play
It took me two years with 8,855 puzzles.
My favorite part is when I go to work and show them my rating, it’s my way of telling them that they are stupid. 🤤

It's not your rating. It's your total score at the Puzzle Tiers game. You're in the Stone tier. There is no correlation between your score and your rating. My score is around 17000, and my puzzle rating fluctuates around 2200 😉...
I'm 2100 right now...
Sorry I'm 2200 right now😁
And 2600 is excellent
Im a little over 3300
