Feature description

yes, the nearly tripled application size is indeed a concern.

• https://github.com/FossifyOrg/Gallery/blob/5054b37a96aa1f7d996392d7ec1a9a7155ed0eb0/CHANGELOG.md?plain=1#L14-L15

• • if application size with JXL library is a concern, I think JXL could be moved to a separately installed plugin.
  • I don't know how that's exactly done, I'm afraid, but I've seen some apps doing that.

Why do you want this feature?

• after quick pic app went down, i was now using fossify ...
• on an old "android one" device (NOT to be confused with android v1 lol), ...
• which are very low on resource availability combined with android's stupid restriction on "cant move apps to external sd card" ...
• and 16.5 MiB (v1.1.3) to 42.1 MiB (v1.2.1) is just a bit too much for extremely limited internal storage of these devices

added the template missing label 1 hour ago

this issue was created directly from another issue, and no prompt for template is shorn in that case. its understandable to close without any manual poke when someone deliberately ignores the template.

but i think u should have been considerate here due to github's limitation of not prompting for a template while "reference this comment in new issue"
