I do the NY Times Mini crossword (.5-2 min) and Connections (2-3 min). I sometimes do one of the puzzles featured on cracking the cryptic (up to ~90 min). I tried plusword a few times, but I just didn't get the clues most times. I used to do the set daily puzzle, but I got out of the habit. Wordle and similar never really caught on with me.

Not exactly daily per se the way, say, Wordle or the NY Times Mini crossword is, but I'm a huge fan of Nonograms. They kindof scratch the same itch and are a lot of fun. (For me at least.)

I'm familiar with the puzzle type, I'll have to check out that site. It looks like a good collection. Someone came up with a variant called cross the streams where the shaded area has to be contiguous. The ambiguous clues cause some interesting logic.
