This pretty much happens only on ChessCom. When I play on LiChess for example, it never does. It now feels I need to keep at least like a 10 second buffer every time I get low as if I get close to 3 seconds, it just says timeout despite making a move. Disappointing, really.
The site allows a maximum amount of lag over a series of moves. If the server receives the move, but the lag compensation isn't enough to have time on the clock still, that can happen.
Different sites handle lag differently.
