Now here's the oddity: I'm posting a screenshot as an attachment, to show I'm having difficulty posting screenshots as attachments..
Been happening, intermittently, for a week or two.

NB. Google Pixel image editing doesn't do 'resize'*, so I often take screenshots of photos to reduce their size.

Looking at the error message I would guess that the forum software is failing to access the image address for some reason.
Try renaming the image to something simpler - that tilda "might" be confusing things?
