Timeout issue

I've got strange issue during this game: lichess.org/0jJbtEGq
It was a game from PC, browser FF56.
I've moved, timer changed to opponents, and I've been waiting for opponents move. But instead I've got "timeout", and my last move was reverted.
As I know in case of internet issue timer doesn't change state on move, so you need to refresh the page. It's likely "success callback".
But in that case opponent timer started to tick - there was no evidence that server didn't received my move. And timeout was a bad surprise for me.
Ouch, that's bad. I wonder why your move didn't reach the server or how the software could better handle this use case.
But usually timer ticks only when message reach the server. Something changed?
