Add ftpes:// as protocol in front of the server name (or replace the existing ftps://). Also see TC help, section 3.g), or press F1 when editing a connection ("FTP: connection details" dialog).

Check your system's date and time to make sure it's within a few minutes of the real time. Wrong system clocks are known to cause such issues.

The system date and time are OK.
I also tried a connection test on another computer.

That's due to the expired Let's encrypt intermediate certificate in the certificate chain. There are apparently two certificate chains, but TC only checks the first and finds the expired cert in the path. You can safely ignore this, connect, and then click on the lock icon to always accept the certificate. I'm working on a solution to handle the expired certificate.
