Nostalgia for an old puzzle 'try again' feature.

Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy the updated puzzles. However, I remember there was a 'try again' feature in old puzzles that I miss. After you clicked for the solution, it gave you an option to continue with the puzzle, even if you already lost points. I liked this feature, because sometimes if I didn't see a long sequence, I still tried to figure it out from the new position. I don't know if this feature is turned off only temporarily, but I wish it was back at some point. Am I alone at noticing this or do some other people feel the same?
@KedaR_AthreyA But after you click view the solution, you cannot continue. I think you could do that with the old puzzles. You click view the solution, it plays the move, than you continue.

If I'm understanding you correctly, I think what you are referring to is still very much possible. First of all you can scroll through all of the moves of the puzzle with your mouse or arrow keys (just like the analysis board). After the puzzle is (un-) successfully completed you can also make manual moves at any point in the variation and see how they would have affected Stockfish's analysis bar and why. Just make sure to disable the "automatically jump to next puzzle immediately after completion" button below.

Second of all you can access all the puzzles you've ever played (and replay them if you wish) via the Puzzle dashboard available on your profile page. There you can see your progress in the last 30 days, replay failed puzzles and see where your strengths and weaknesses lie. Hope this helps. And I also hope my answer is not irrelevant, I'm fairly new to Lichess, so I don't have personal experience with the "old" puzzle system you referenced.
