I rated this 3/5 difficulty.
This was a very cool puzzle! The palindromes were really pulling their weight, and there were some cool ideas throughout! I would say this was a difficult puzzle, but was definitely approachable and I only got stuck a few times. Both times I got stuck I eventually realized that I was just missing some basic sudoku. The break-in was well-paced and I was able to make progress fairly consistently.
Really cool how each of the palindromes interact with each other, the killer cages, and rest of the puzzle. Ended up coloring 6 of the 9 digits eventually (which is more than I typically do for these types of puzzles), but the interactions and deductions were very nice. Also, I thought this use of even digit cells was classy.
I think my time was better than average for a puzzle of this difficulty. The logic was definitely par for a 3/5 puzzle.

Very enjoyable! It had a nice consistent difficulty, and most points where I got a little stuck it was simply because I overlooked a fairly obvious pointing pair somewhere.
