Merging with <https://bugs.debian.org/1117444> which is the same bug.
There's more discussion of the root cause there.

patching the file
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gtweak/utils.py
by changing the line
self._desktop_file = appinfo.get_filename()
to
self._desktop_file = appinfo.get_filename(appinfo)
appears to fix the issue.
That is not the right solution here: it would make gnome-tweaks regress
as soon as pygobject is fixed (either by upgrading GLib to 2.86, or by
changing pygobject to be compatible with both versions >= 2.86 and <
2.86).
I should add that I used ChatGPT as a quick way to find a solution and this is
what it suggested
ChatGPT does not have human judgement, and cannot assess whether a change
will cause more problems than it solves.
