Math can be so much fun. I fell in love with math after watching the linear algebra series by ThreeBlueOneBrown. Unfortunately I don't have much time to do math puzzles, because I'm too busy with programming puzzles, hacking puzzles, arduino stuff or building stuff inside or outside the house.
I highly recommend checking out The Bright Side of Mathematics if you want to learn more about math in some detail. His videos are a lot shorter than typical open course lectures covering the same material, but you still get the major results and important proofs. He has playlists on linear algebra, real analysis, probability, and tons of more technical topics. IMO if I need to learn high-level math in a short time, he's where I go first.
Also, despite the channel name, he has both bright and dark versions of all his videos so my eyeballs don't melt.
3Blue1Brown is great too.
