Device storage is a premium commodity. It would be great to see cache clearing and perhaps setting size limits.
Just checked mine, it’s at 2GB
This no fine uh. No fine.
36MB in mine… And I’m using it since the native app is available
Can you post a screenshot? iOS version?
Just realized you are talking about iOS
I’m on android
Yeh I don’t see this on my Android device have only around 50mb cached and even that is on the upper end of what I have seen before. 1+gigs seems very extreme
The lowest I’ve seen it in iOS is 350MB. Which still seems insanely large for an app that’s about 30MB. Yes it’s gotta cache things but what community is posting 100MB gifs 12 times a day??
Edit: Turns out it’s that high because iOS lumps web apps in with Safari wen cache (apparently).
It’s not just you Voyager users. I left Liftoff to try Sync because it had the same problem accumulating too much cache.
Sync caches a lot as well. Atleast sync for reddit used to
Sync for Lemmy does as well. I’ve seen it go up to 1.5GB. I highly recommend running Cache Cleaner (FOSS) periodically.
Device storage is a premium commodity
I was about to make fun of you for that, turns out I slipped into a different timeline or something. I was 100% certain Apple added a spot for microSD cards in iPhone SIM trays several years ago so they could sell special white ones and pretend shipping their phones with 32 GiB of device storage was helping to save the environment. Too many lead paint chips I guess. Device storage is NOT a premium commodity unless it’s enforced that way, you can get 1TB microSD cards for $95 now.
No, it’s a premium commodity because of how much Apple marks up the storage cost. 128GB costs you $100, even though you can buy a 2TB SSD (or 6TB HDD) for under that.
That’s insane. I want to go back to my fantasy world now
