Generally if something isn't embedding it's because it's not a direct link or there is no file extension. If I can't verify it's an image then it wont be embedded.
Please forgive me, I'm really bad at explaining this but I'll try...
The link must point directly to the image and not a web page that hosts the image. I'm pretty sure http://prntscr.com/ don't even host the image, their links simply point to a web page not the actual image. I believe the image resides on another site like imgur.
Basically the link they give you is a link to a page with ads, that also includes the uploaded image. The link actually has nothing to do with image, nor does it even point to the image. The webpage contains the image source and embeds it from an external source. That means the link they provide doesn't tell us anything at all about the content or where it is or what it is.
There is a simple solution however and I'll use a screenshot I took as an example...
Here's the link they gave me after uploading my pic, as you can see, it wont embed.

Here's the image URL from their page (notice the image isn't even hosted by them)
Here's how I got the real image URL (direct link)

Right clicking the uploaded image and selecting copy image url from the menu will give a direct link and linkify will embed.
and finally here's the link embedded with linkify..
