I played a game where I sacrificed my bishop to fork my opponent's king and queen, but Stockfish said it was a mistake. I don’t understand why.

that move is not a sacrifice because they don't need to take it and you dont gain anything. you shouldve moved the bishop back to d7 for some ungodly reason i donty know cause im "800" elo. its a mistake because the opponent wins a tempo with Re1 and forcing your bishop to move back to g4 or to the edge of the board anyway

also the black knight could also take on c2 after Re1 Bg4 or Bh5
