I've tried to post image directly via the integrated stuff, and was told, that it's not an image.

After trying to post the link I've mentioned above, it says: "Error: the link is broken, has expired or timed out (try again), or image is invalid"

Seems like there's a bug in the thumbnail generator.

I'm using tor.

That pretty much explains why it has a higher chance of timing out.

Try without it or with another proxy/vpn

Maybe you're right, but I still think, that there's a bug somewhere.

that there's a bug somewhere.

Notice how only your image link posts are missing a thumbnail

I've just managed to upload the image in question just as another one and bow my head in front of your astonishing wisdom. You were right and I was wrong. Maybe the error message could be improved, but the but for the image upload appears to have been on my side, and the problem with the link was my wrong intuition.
