For a while, there had been problems inserting images into posts on particular sites. https://meta.codidact.com/questions/277052. Now it seems this has spread to all sites.
When I hover over the image button in the post editor, I see "Insert image". However, when clicking on it, the hover text disappears and nothing else happens.
Browser is Edge, running on Win10.
<hr>
Related question: Is there a way to cause an image file to be uploaded to the server and then get its URL without using the Insert Image button?
The effects of all the other buttons can be had just by typing the right HTML or Markup directly. That's faster and more convenient than breaking the flow to reach for a the mouse, click a button, move the cursor back to where you were typing, and put hand back on keyboard. Having a way to upload an image without that button would also get around the problem above.

When I first go to this page or hit F5 to refresh the page, this shows up in the console:

Since others can't reproduce this, it may be some setting in my browser. I'm an electrical engineer, not that familiar with browsers. Are there any particular settings I should look at? I did browse thru the few settings I could find, but nothing seemed relevant. However, I'm not sure what I'm looking for.
<hr>
<blockquote>this issue has been there for me for around two months now, I just type the markup myself.</blockquote>
I don't mind typing the Markup (actually HTML) myself, in fact would prefer that. However, how do you get the URL pointing to where the server stuck the uploaded image? I don't know any way to get that except using the image button and seeing the text it seeds into the edit window.
<hr>
<blockquote> Have you tried in incognito mode</blockquote>
I'm writing this in incognito mode now. When I click on the image button at the bottom of the page where you can write a new answer, I still get the same thing.
Now I notice that it does work on some sites in some cases. I went back to regular Edge mode, and find the same thing. Neither works on the image button at the bottom of this page. Maybe this is somewhat random. I'll poke around more and maybe I can find a pattern.

When I edit an answer, I'm able to use the upload button (just noticed while editing this answer to incorporate errors on my side). When I'm the site to post an answer, I have the following errors in my console:

Since others can't reproduce this, it may be some setting in my browser. I'm an electrical engineer, not that familiar with browsers. Are there any particular settings I should look at? I did browse thru the few settings I could find, but nothing seemed relevant. However, I'm not sure what I'm looking for.

Insert Image button now totally broken

For a while, there had been problems inserting images into posts on particular sites.  Now it seems this has spread to all sites.

When I hover over the image button in the post editor, I see "Insert image".  However, when clicking on it, the hover text disappears and nothing else happens.
