I am aware that chess.com has a paywall restricting most key resources that are available in this more modern age, some people do not know of the other websites/workarounds, so I will list what I use here.

Puzzles

https://lichess.org/training (Login so the puzzles can scale with difficulty, Lichess Elo is identical to Chess.com)

You may find Lichess puzzles to be slightly harder/different than chess.com, Lichess takes their puzzles directly from live games between highly-skilled players (usually CM FM GM), and the community moderates the puzzles with feedback.

If you do not like these, even with the daily puzzle limit on chess.com, you have many options. Explore the puzzle survival, normal puzzles, daily puzzle (posted on the home forum and the puzzles tab), and puzzle battle for a total of around 8.

Analysis

Chess analysis is essential in every stage of a player's growth to learn from their own mistakes/successes and see why/how they did something and how it affected the game. Chess.com locks analysis behind a paywall, which is questionable considering how easy it is to work around this (which I will now be showing you).

After any game, click the share icon at the bottom of the panel on the right, you should see an option to copy the PGN. Do so, and then head to lichess.org/paste. Paste the PGN into the text box and request a computer analysis. There are a few differences in how Lichess analyzes games, take some time to figure out how to best understand the information the website gives you. You can even replay your mistakes and find the best move.
