Crash when downloading/sharing images on Boost (lemmy.ml)

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% :)

Edit 2: clearing cache is needed very regularly to make downloading images work

I'm still getting the image proxy issue but no crashes on this end

Thank you! :) that's really good to know - the crashes stopped with clearing the cache, but I didn't know if the image proxy was normal/widespread.
