Kind of a weird question

Is there a name for the skill that chess uses that has to deal with spacial awareness and reasoning? I've noticed I've struggled with similar mechanics in the past in video games, notably Final Fantasy 14 which has heavy use of finding "safe spots" with overlapping area attacks. Reasoning out what pieces are threatening what squares and how they interact reminds me a lot of these fights, and I would like to get better at this skill in general.

If you don't want me here, then just ban me. Clearly I'm too stupid to be welcome here. Guess I have to pay $1000 an hour or whatever Levy charges to be welcome in the chess community.

Where can I get help?

I keep watching guides and looking at my daily analysis but I'm not getting any better. I can't figure out what I'm doing so wrong. I can't afford to hire someone, buy a bunch of books, or buy courses. I'm trying to learn by watching Youtube and stuff, but nothing is working.

Chesscom recommended me a former opponent.

I faced them when they were 390. They are now 600 two weeks later. Meanwhile I haven't improved at all. What's even the point of trying anymore.

Edit: Checked back 15 hours later and now they're 680.

Is it possible to see where you played each game?

Does Chesscom have a way to display w/l/d from each device you use? I'm wondering if I play worse on mobile compared to PC browser.
