Warning. It is a nsfw link to a post in lemmynsfw.com. Don't click if you do not want to see/test it.

Version of the app is: 1.0.12 App crashes when I try to visit it. But it works in Firefox mobile. https://lemmynsfw.com/post/13013020

maybe the pic is too hot for the app to handle?

Ok, I will show myself out.

I'm seeing the same behavior, also on 1.0.12 on a Pixel 8

Not crashing on Samsung A50s, same app version

So what's the difference that it works for you and not me? Is it due to phone model? I use nothing 2.

Idk to be honest. I'm not a developer. I just thought reporting it works for me might help narrow the problem down

Do you have the 8gb of ram version? The passing phones in this thread seem to be 12gb, while the failing phones seem 8gb. The bug might be using too much ram.

(I am a sw dev but not a boost or even android dev)

My phone does have 12gb. Maybe it's the cpu?

The ones that aren't crashing seem to be Samsung phones, weird ???

Galaxy Fold 4 & 5, A50,.my S22u all work as reported in here.

It definitely feels like Samsung is the nsfw phone producer?

[โ€“] saigot@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Working on my galaxy fold5 same app version

Unfortunately also working on my fold4

Pixel 6, crash

[โ€“] obinice@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Crashes for me too, same app version.

I'm wondering if this app is still being developed? Maybe I've just lost track of time, but it feels like a long time since there's been any updates, and I'm on the beta branch.

I'm grateful for its existence at all, it's the best Lemmy client by far, but Lemmy is adding new features over time and such, and I wonder if Boost's development is proceeding behind the scenes or not...

I am updating the app to support new lemmy features now that I have more time :)

[โ€“] cavveman@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 1 year ago

Was updated in March.
