Title says it all. Some puzzles say 1100+ difficulty but no 1100 will ever see that tactically lol. Are these puzzles generated by computers or is someone really confused when they’re making them?

Puzzles gain their ratings just like a player. When solved successfully, they drop rating. When failed, they increase.

 

Some puzzles may give partial credit for some correct moves, so their ratings can potentially drop down, even though not always fully solved.

Puzzle rating are worlds apart from the actual strength required to solve them is what I’m trying to say .And no , no examples off the top of my head. But I’ve seen many that are about 1100 that I would need to be gm stock fish to see the tactics

If it's rated 1100, then players near that puzzle rating are likely solving them at least 50% of the time. Or at least getting partial credit.

 

Seeing a puzzle solution when you know there's a tactic, is different than getting a similar position in a game and recognizing or calculating that there's a tactic.

Likely or 50% is not accuracy

You haven't given any examples of puzzles with an inaccurate rating.  So what am i supposed to play through?

I've found most of the puzzles are pretty fairly represented in rating but there are a few gems like this
