    You just unknowingly downloaded this picture of Zoboomafoo. It is now on your storage drive in the form of a cached image file. It’s temporary, and will be removed the next time your cache is cleared if you ever do that. Otherwise, it will sit there for some time, lurking in your system. Good thing it’s only Zoboomafoo!

    Enjoy!

        In a temporary cache directory. If you’re on Android, you can clear it by going to your app settings, viewing storage usage on whichever app you used to view this, and clearing the cache. For example, the app I use for lemmy currently has 100MB in it’s cache. My Firefox app on my phone currently has 555MB is cached files. This can includes things such as web pages, JavaScript files, and the images I’ve encountered while visiting the web who knows when, I rarely clear that shit.
