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.

Well they don’t usually. I also think it can be considered a pest in certain areas. And tusks are sort of horns.

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.
I do Semantle. It’s sort of like a hot or cold kind of game where there is a word of the day and you guess words and they are scored as to how close they are semantically. You have an unlimited number of guesses and also a seemingly unlimited number of hints. Even with the hints it sometimes takes me 60 guesses, but sometimes it’s 5 or 6. There is a link to the paper where they discuss the relativity model they use. I find it challenging.
Its an interesting game, but I don’t think I’m enough of a word person to enjoy it. I might give it another shot.
