Thanks for this hint. I put the address of the website in the URL field, then I uploaded the screenshot using the Image button. Apparently when you do that, Lemmy replaces the previously inserted URL with the one of the image you just uploaded. Must be a bug. Added the actual URL now.

    I think you can enter either a url or an image, but not both. You could add the image to the text portion of your post with markdown:

    ![Optional description](https://url.to/image.jpg)

    Nope, both is possible, and now the case for this post. When you upload an image, Lemmy generates an URL for it and auto-inserts it into the URL field. You can then replace it with any other URL without the image getting deleted from the post. It's just that clicking on the preview of the image will then take you to that new URL instead of enlarging the image. In any case I find it confusing, the two things should be handled separately in the UI
