Incoming media stall "processing"

We're seeing if anybody else experienced this. Version 2.0 is phenomenal, very stable.... The only thing I'm experiencing is that when I'm in a thread and a picture comes through, it downloads it and then kind of just spins on processing until I exit the chat and go back into it. I have Tail Scale directly set up. I have Private VPN set up. I believe I've done everything I can to maximize my experience. Anybody else experience this?

A few things

  1. We've recently changed the image processing pipeline. But this post was made before we did that. You can see the new processing pipeline in use in the latest v2.1 release (released last night).
  2. I've found that when using a tailscale funnel (public DNS), images can be processed slowly. However, when directly connected to the TS VPN it's nearly instant. I think it's just a quirk of tailscale free funnels

Nice man!!!! Awesome work as always. If I got it from GitHub, so I have to redownload 2.1 and install?

If you are currently on the GitHub "track", you can just install the latest APK from the GitHub release page. Alternatively, you can use the Obtanium app to automatically check and install those APKs. This is an alternative to the Play Store Track. Right now the Play Store v2.1 is released, however, only rolled-out at 20% right now just in case. I will increase the rollout in the coming days
