I just had this senario happened to me where I had the two knights left and my opponent had just taken my last pawn with his king and immediately it was a draw. News to me this has never happened before you learn something new everyday. My opponent had a 1120 rating compared to my 850 so he gladly went for the draw.
King + two knights vs king, always an automatic draw?

It is a bug in chess.com.
There exists a series of legal moves for 2 knights to checkmate a king.
'5.2.2 The game is drawn when a position has arisen in which neither player can checkmate the opponent’s king with any series of legal moves. The game is said to end in a ‘dead position’. This immediately ends the game, provided that the move producing the position was in accordance with Article 3 and Articles 4.2 – 4.7.'
Well, I know what "forced" means and I know the difference between "two knights" and "two knights plus a bishop". At least I have that going for me.

Steppermotor provides a variety of different types of gear reducers including planetary reducers, parallel shaft reducers, and worm reducers.
I did a bit of research and how FIDE handles this is very much down to the judgement of the arbiter. A player must claim that their opponent either can't Checkmate or is making no effort to Checkmate and the arbiter must agree that this is the case. It might be that the opponent can provide a verbal justification for continuing the game and the arbiter will allow it to continue for while longer while they assess if Checkmate is viable. While it's theoretically possible to code this procedure, it would be an enormous waste of resources for rare cases which aren't already covered by the existing Chess.com rules.
