This post contains disclaimers for my blogs and lists of players and their statistics that I post on this forum.
Disclaimer #1
These statistics began to be recorded from September 2022, in rare cases it might be outdated. It was collected manually, randomly, so the outstanding results of other players might not get into it.
Disclaimer #2
These statistics are intended to raise interest in solving puzzles by new players on the site. The publication of the article is in no way connected with the Lichess team, this is my personal initiative. Colors and symbols from the Lichess website were used in the design of the image for the article. Not sure if this is acceptable or appropriate.
Disclaimer #3
Ratings and records are for a specific date. On some profiles, the puzzle solving rating could fluctuate in the hundreds of rating points.
Since I publish puzzle solving ratings and streak records manually for each profile, I leave it up to me to update them. At your request, I can definitely update only the data of your puzzle streak records.
Disclaimer #4
This list is a rather narrow selection. This is especially true for players with a streak of less than 90. I think there are fifty players on the site with a streak in the range of 80-89, but 20 made it into this list. There are a lot of Russian-speaking streamers, Russian-speaking female masters and generally titled players on the list. That is why it starts with a rather low streak of 45. At some point, I began to look for profiles with a large number of solved puzzles, profiles of Lichess patrons, as well as players from clubs I was interested in, and the list began to grow with their records. I should probably apologize for the fact that someone's records will not be included in this list. It seems to me that it will be even better if there are players who will make their list with the players they choose according to their own criteria.
Disclaimer #5
Sometimes players solve regular puzzles without regard to rating, in which case their number is not displayed in the general statistics on their page. Perhaps one of them will be on this list with the postscript "Solved 0 (rated) puzzles". This parameter of activity on the site seemed significant to me when demonstrating the record of the streak, so I did not remove these zeros. To demonstrate the achievements of players in other areas of activity on the site, I will also indicate the number of tournament points earned by the player. First of all, for those who scored 90 in puzzle streak, as well as for lichess patrons, and players with a large number of solved puzzles or puzzle streak attempts.

Update 10. In the example with the choice of who to place in 5th-6th place (CM PokochajSzachy vs NM Kanthecarowin), I was primarily guided by this rule of title order (is no longer valid, see below and in update 10): (GM->IM->FM->CM->NM->LM). Other rules are listed in clause 9.2 of the updates at the end of this article.
Disclaimer #7
It should be remembered that streamers could solve puzzles together with the stream's chat, receiving puzzle solutions from viewers. Or the solution could be a collaborative effort over several days with some friends in voicechat (although I do not welcome this). Your best streak cannot be reset if you think it was wrong, so I recommend that you clarify in your profile how the incredibly high streak was obtained.
Disclaimer #8
In Update 11, the relative position of record holders in the list will be changed. I made the decision to merge the general and women's divisions on the basis of "what elo is required to get the title." Why? Since some female players indicate their title in the general division, and not in the women's one (for example, when they receive IM after WGM, i.e. this is their new achievement). And also because the FIDE title system is strongly tied to the overall rating, so it is already balanced in itself. As a personal initiative, I will place women's titles above the general titles with an equal elo rating, in such cases: WGM over FM, WIM over CM. See below the list for more details in Update 10.

Some of the profiles move between the lists (continuation and termination of subscription, receiving a title) and within the list (new profiles are found, new records are set). Images with graphical representation of lists may be updated infrequently. The first to lose relevance in them is the position in the list and the number of cups, but other values either change very rarely (Fide titles, streak value), or insignificantly (statistics by variants, tournament points).
