Some small issue I would love to see rectified before the release is, the profile picture of an account disappears when I follow an account.
So first I search for an account or it shows up in my network stream. Then I go to the profile locally, there I see the profile and the profile picture, when I follow the account the profile is then shown with the white place holder profile picture. I then need to Re-Fetch to have the profile picture shown again.

Small thing it seems, but still annoying.

@Roland Häder are your http and php process running under different users, but with the same group?
@Roland Häder which folder is the /proxy/ anyway? Is it the "Path to item cache"?
@Roland Häder is it possible this is inherited from the main dir?
@Roland Häder again, httpd, friendicadeamon and php and php-fpm all use the same user or just same group?

@utzer ah cool. Well, perhaps not, but I thought that was only for me. I have the same but as I have a couple of other minor issues too I thought it was my setup that needed fixing. Perhaps it still does but that was one of things I thought was "probably just me".
@Roland Häder yes, then you might need different default creation. I am not sure if this is inherited from the parent folder or set by php when creating the file. Do you know which is the case? You need more broad permission as you already wrote.
@Roland Häder maybe there is some config parameter... if not I guess there could be one to have this covered.
Till then, why not do the quick and dirty and run a cronjob every minute?
