As it necessary? 👀are people no longer playing for the sake of tactic and strategy? Are they into playing perfect moves only until they win? I'm asking because I have received almost 17 resigns this week from fellow random chess players.

They are now down by 1 piece and 2 pawns (after bxc3, which also vives you a passed pawn). This is a very lost game for white. There also aren't any possibly tricky things to try and make you blunder that I can think of.
