bishop sacrifice, blunder or genius ?
Definitely a blunder. But you can do stuff like that in blitz games and often get away with it.
And your opponent made the last blunder.
blunder seems way to harsh for my reasoned attack, if anything this is a mistake or inaccuracy + that move set up my win. does anyone know why this is classed as a blunder ?

Because you said in the title of the forum - "Blunder or genius?" And I would have to say, doing that when the only piece supporting your attack is the queen would be considered a blunder.
It’s a blunder because king exposer/disabling castle is not an equivalent trade for a bishop in the current state of board. If you had imminent threats coming in a few turns and you knew the opponent castling would be the only defense, then the engine would not have claimed the move to be a blunder. You had safer, better plays.
