I'm adding this too: Considering that my above performance ratings include my major blunders, which are patterns that I'm advanced enough to see (and that I have seen before), please add what you think my actual performance was in this game without them (mostly just omitting hxg4). It would be especially helpful if you provide a game review screenshot with the same game but with the best (human) move replacing the couple of fatal mistakes (b6, hxg4 mostly, the others I'm not so worried about) and with the new performance ratings. Also include your thoughts on how my skill will develop in the near future (say, in the next year).

Hello everyone, I am an intermediate player rated 1026 rapid here on chess.com. I am practicing longer time controls in order to improve my tactical and positional vision overall, especially in faster time controls that I play much more often, so that I can face stronger opponents at the 1300-1500 level, and eventually beyond, at my USCF tournaments and online. Above is a game I played on both sides. I would appreciate it if experienced intermediates, advanced players, and masters chipped in to this post by evaluating my mistakes (major and minor), praising what I did well and why it was good, and offering advice on how to improve and see the major patterns I missed (even if I saw and annotated them). Above is also a screenshot of my accuracies and performance ratings on both sides. I would appreciate comments on that too, mostly on what the performance ratings mean for my strength compared to my actual ratings, and whether or not they accurately reflect my playing strength in this game. Any comments at all are helpful, especially reinforcements of what I did correct (even if I didn't see it) or constructive criticisms. Thank you in advance!
