One of the photos I talked about in my first post, renamed as `.heic`:

 ![original-1D37C8CB-3FB9-4542-AE38-550D274E858B](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/7/c/2/7c2499730f6cf730efa542b98c136f91f1d2fb47.jpeg)

If I try to upload it as `.jpeg` I get:

 ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/f/1/e/f1e1d544c8a1c47bc2877883b39d2f8da7a5aaa5.png)

Interesting. And a different message than what I got in my own forum. And because the photo with the USB sticks is also HEVC/HEIC, but uploaded as `IMG_1018.jpg` (I was able to see this when it was uploaded).

Something is strange here…
