I totally understand the frustration.
How long have you been playing chess with the serious intent to improve?
I think I should quit chess. (dead)

Yes, go away, walk away and don't look back, you will be happy for the rest of your days and be able to proudly tell your grandchildren that you were addicted once but managed to get rid of nasty addiction chess

You had the enemy king in the middle of the board surrounded by your entire army and a mate in 1. Logic should tell you there is a mate close and NOT to start dissolving and distracting your army away from mate. Lesson learned and look for it next time. That is chess.

Playing weakened engines weakens your game. Play real people if you hope to improve.

What do you mean you do not know your true rating? You do. Just check your profile. You played 380 rapid games, 350 blitz games and 1680 bullet game. This is enough to establish your true rating.
I went from 500 to100 elo now I’m back to 500 so it’s possible🪱

Most people who quit keep playing, but they do not play well. Many quit before they start. Only a few really take up the game.
It’s possible to bring your elo up. watch some videos about openings and endgames if you want. Its your decision, but personally I love this game.

https://www.chess.com/forum/view/general/why-can-i-beat-a-1200-1300-but-still-im-400-in-rapid-600-in-blitz-and-900-in-bullet, this is the one that made me quit chess. My rating is low and I can't know my true rating. I just don't wanna think about it. I moved on to some other interests. Just motivate me or something.
