I believe labeling beta releases will help. Those of us who use github scanning apps like #obtainium filer out beta releases. When open source first people install the apk and it's not labeled beta, it should work as expected.
After re-reading everything...I honestly feel this was the breaking point when so many kept posting, not knowing they were using a beta release and pics got bricked with no warning.
As far as the wording update, I feel just a disclaimer like (new feature -vmay cause images to not be displayed on other clients)
i still love your work
