It makes jigsaw puzzles to solve online, which I wasn’t really expecting. Does anyone enjoy solving them like this? I was expecting it would create some file for you to print, or be a service that would do it for you and ship it, or something.

I would be interested in a high quality version of what you suggested. TFA’s service? Not at all

I've seen several iPad puzzle generators that create random jigsaw puzzles from your Apple Photos, etc. It's not personally my thing, but I think people enjoy them as a sort of background activity while they're watching TV.

As far as physical, there are many businesses that take an image file, number of pieces, etc. and will create a custom jigsaw puzzle.

For example:

I think Ravensburger has a service where you can upload images and then order the puzzle.
