Hi Boost folks,

I was just wondering if anyone else is experiencing crashes when saving images?

I keep going to share funny pictures, and when I share, Boost/Lemmy tries to send an “image proxy”, so I hit download (my usual workaround), but as of today Boost crashes. This seems to be the case for any image post.

Is this a thing for anyone else? :)

Edit: no more crashes after clearing Boost’s cache, but still curious about sharing images not working 100% :)

    That’s really interesting, I didn’t realise the viewer’s instance had an impact on how Lemmy handles things! :) I can imagine it could cause a few headaches trying to patch an app for one without breaking another.

    Thinking about it - I joined Lemmy.ml for the programming, but did mean to try using more instances, this could be a fun experiment. :)

    Hopefully it’s not too bad for the nice developer who makes Boost :)

    Thank you again for taking the time to look into all this and explain it! :)
