the queen is pinned because of the bishop

So what? It's still checkmate.

No, because then the bishop will be checking the king, which is an illegal move.

Time to read the game rules for the first time.

 
Following your silly claim, this is not a checkmate either (as well as countless other positions) because the Queen is pinned.

That is not the same type of position…

In the actual puzzle moving the queen to any direction but diagonally puts your king in check. Moving your queen there, however, doesn’t. Please have a brain before posting.

Wrong, it's Qb3#. Why don't you analyze the position before you come up with a solution? And not with analysis, either. With your brain.

How old are you?

I'm 1937 USCF

1679 rapid on my main account.

And the 5th best 13 year old in the world.

I managed to actually beat him once.

The next gam, we drew. Game Review rated me 1900, him 1950. But only because I accidentally blundered my knight one move.

My point is that I played like a 1900. That’s amazing.

No, that's not a checkmate because the bishop can take the queen. It doesn't matter if the queen is pinned or not. YOU should read the rules.
