When I click on the puzzle I was just playing normal and healthy mix and it gives a discovered attack, en passant, endgame, kingside attack, mate in 4, and very long puzzle. Idk is this normal or not, but I think I can tell this puzzle belongs somewhere else more advanced. btw I found a bug just now when I redo it, it didn't work anymore now I try again but it gave me a +6 rating, it's about redoing this puzzle.
I thought the last patch bugfixed en passant. Guess not
@Special_Yeet It's an easy puzzle
I had a small amount of sympathy for the OP upon reading that he'd been bitten by missing an en passant which I _assumed_ to have been set up on the move immediately prior to the first move of the puzzle.
I myself have failed more than one puzzle because I'd overlooked the cues that indicate this preceding move. The first time a part of me blamed the puzzle, but any occurrences thereafter I blamed myself.
But here, as #9 points out, the en passant opportunity literally occurs in the course of the solution. The OP is an idiot.

That puzzle is really a koool one! And the new Puzzle Storm is amazing. I'm so happy that when I started chess 2.5 years ago I found videos from chess-network and he made me finding Lichess in first try.
I don't even know other online-chess-sites.... but why should I - Lichess is perfect!

Agreed, great puzzle! One of my favs. I don't know that if the en-passant topic hadn't been brought up I would have gotten it right.
