Is there an error in the draw decision?

There's no stalemate-draw rule here — stalemate doesn't count as a draw.

Draw claimed • Insufficient material

No, this is a correspondence game, time is enough.

It says white claimed a draw (well, it didn't say the color but white is the only one who could have done it). Did you really not press the draw button after playing Qf3+?

Draw claimed • Insufficient material -> white click draw and black can't win auto-claimed

Ok, really a unique draw, without the opponent's agreement

It would be nice when the system shows this draw offer before the game ends with Draw claimed • Insufficient material.
The pgn export shows a different result of the game: [Termination "Insufficient material"].
In my opinion, this should also be checked, as it leads to an inconsistency.
