LRU cache seems like a good choice for caching images. Then set a max size and/or age of items in the cache and evict as necessary. This is the defacto caching mechanism in Apps.

I don’t like every app having its own max size, I’d hope Android at some point starts making an automatic cache control tool system-wide (that’s not a third party app) but it seems we’re stuck with this mechanism

It is a bit of wishful thinking, but could be cool if they had an AndroidX package with some kind of global caching system. Problem is though, how do you make a caching mechanism that can fit all use cases.
