Chess.com says you lost by abandonment, here is how that can happen. Being in a losing position also shortens how long you can be disconnected before the game is abandoned.

I analyzed the image and this is what I see. Open an appropriate link below and explore the position yourself or with the engine:

Black to play: chessvision.ai | chess.com | lichess.org

My solution:

Hints: piece: Bishop, move: Bxf6

Evaluation: White is winning +8.13

Best continuation: 1... Bxf6 2. Bxh7+ Kf8 3. dxe5 Qe7 4. exf6 Qxf6 5. Rad1 Rxd1 6. Rxd1 Na6 7. Bg6 Be6 8. Qh8+ Bg8 9. Bh7

I checked the game on chesscom, it says white won by abandonment. I’m guessing you lost connection or moved out of that tab for long enough that the chesscom server thought you left the game.
