It also makes sharing images using iOS’s share functions not work because apps like Messenger don’t support AVIF. I have to screenshot (I use voyager). If this gets implemented, applying a conversion to a supported format for most apps might be a welcome addition, unless Android has wide support for AVIF natively?
avif has been fully supported in iOS since version 16.4. So the failure is on the app developer for not including it. Often with closed projects like these it's caused by multiple teams not communicating.

Android is more tricky to define as the app developer is free to use any library they want. But officially it's been supported since Android 14.

avif works for me on boost. It's potentially an unhandled exception with the image proxy feature my instance doesn't use.
It should be fixed on the new version
Fixed indeed! Thank you. Lemmy.zip is finally usable again and I can return to Boost from Summit. Writing this from Boost.
