On topic:

  • Did you have a strong password with much entropy (so not a short one or e.g. one consisting of part of a song lyric or a quote from a book)?
  • Did you have 2FA enabled via e-mail or Google Authenticator?
  • Do you regularly scan your computer for viruses and malware?

Computer security should be taken as seriously as the security of your home and your valuable possessions. You have no-one to blame but yourself if you made it easy for thieves to steal your coins.
