in my keyboard configuration file tilde is found as following:

keycode 35 = plus asterisk plus asterisk dead_tilde dead_macron dead_tilde

35 is the code for the *+~ upper key left from the enter key, plus level 0, asterix level 1 (shift), dead_tilde level 2 (Alt Gr), I don't know what dead_macron on level 3 is...

I did not find a key combination for a tilde without _dead but there are layout variants available with deactivated dead accents, acutes etc. Ill try these out tomorrow

I have to press "~" twice before it gets accepted on Ubuntu. Only once
with Windows, though.

Several layouts have a «dead» ~ key, used for writing ãẽĩõũ. Pressing a dead key twice usually writes the accent mark alone, though in the case of ~, it's not necessarily at the same height (old computers used to draw the ~ sign higher so that it could be really put on top of a lowercase).

Portuguese and German kezboard lazout have such a dead kez.
