I'm looking at this title and totally not willing to click on it... they don't include the actual photo I would hope.

The tweet that contains the image is included. You must set the photo as your phone's background for it to have any effect, so it is safe to click.

They do, although they say the bug only happens if you set it as wallpaper.

I wouldn't click from a phone just in case, though.

I clicked it from one of the affected phones and nothing happened. Saved it, looked at it from the gallery... Nothing.

Seems like the crash is in some wallpaper-related code: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23404772
