Images in the torrent description only show if the user is logged in. If the user is not logged in, you see something like:
Images are served using a proxy cache to preserve the user's privacy. If we served images directly from the original URL, a malicious user could track other users' activity by tracking served images.
Since the proxy takes a lot of resources from the server, we decided to assign a quota per user that you can config in the config file:
[image_cache]
max_request_timeout_ms = 1000
capacity = 128000000
entry_size_limit = 4000000
user_quota_period_seconds = 3600
user_quota_bytes = 64000000
We also need to identify the user to update the quota.
Docs for image configuration: https://docs.rs/torrust-index/3.0.0-alpha.2/torrust_index/config/struct.ImageCache.html
We should add this explanation to the User Guide and also to the crates docs.
Maybe we should also add a link to the User Guide in the application.
