Warning: this is not to demotivate anyone.
Sadly as a former 2200 I can tell you There is a a lot more to learn than en passant, double checking moves and putting your pieces on good squares. You also have to learn opening endgames and middle game plans.

If your pieces are all at the right place at the right time all the time, you will get much higher that 2000. Sadly you aren't stockfish.

Ahhh, that’s why I’m still stuck in the 1800s/1900s. I was missing En passant! That explains it.

Nono BLUNDER CHECKING+(which is a skill that I deffinently use at 2000 elo 😉) instead of looking at what my opponent can do I go "is this a bad square for my piece" looking for bad squares is deffinently the right skill even thouhh if you don't see the bad move how do you know it's bad ? It's a big plot hole

No offence, but these really don’t sound like the normal level of actual chess insight that most 2000s have. It is roughly what I’d expect someone who has played chess for a week to say.

Why on earth did your opponent resign in this game? You can’t take the bishop because of the triple fork…
and why did you resign in this position?? You’ve got some strange games haha
Hi guys I just hit 2000 ELO for the first time after a week of playing this "Chess.com" thing! I wanted to share the top 10 tips I used to get to 2000 ELO so you guys can also get there because some people are not 2000 ELO!
Tip #1: Double check your moves. Make sure your move doesn't accidentally leave one of your pieces undefended, and see if your opponent has a very strong response to your move before actually playing it! If your opponent has a very strong response to your move, maybe consider another move.
Tip #2: Put your pieces on good squares. Good squares = the piece controls a lot of squares, makes a lot of threats, prevents your opponents from moving there, and works together with other pieces. If you place all your pieces on good squares, they will be worth more, and work better together so the game will be much easier for you!
Tip #3: Learn En Passant! If you learn the En Passant rule (Google en passant) you will have an advantage over your opponent who likely does not know the En Passant or will not be as familiar with it and you can play it to surprise them.
