How to report bad Lichess Puzzle

Hey everyone,

I was recently doing some puzzles when I encountered this puzzle: lichess.org/training/lW1SQ

Every move after the first is a forced move, and the final move has multiple answers.

Can anyone please help teach me how to report the puzzle?

Thanks.

You just click the thumbs down if you don't like it for whatever reason.

I see no issue. No matter if some forced moves. That first choice is mostly what it's all about. And puzzles in general are allowed to have multiple mate-in-ones at the end. Ultimately, it ain't as easy as just playing through some forced moves or its rating would be farrrrr lower than +2200 at the moment.

I realize that the first move is really important, but every move after that is just completely unnecessary.

the other moves of stockfish were best defence other wise stockfish will get mated quicker..

Maaaybe.... but that first move is so puzzle worthy (and the rating suggests it trips of some decent puzzlers) and I would actually find it odd if the puzzle ended there. Playing out a mate can be satisfying and you still have to sort out the last move (though easy by then even if you didn't see it coming).

Overall it is a tactic you want to be able to spot. I'm more bothered by puzzles that seemingly end a bit too early.
