VRChat fails to load into worlds with content cache near full as of build 1648, persisting into 1649

Since 1648, most attempts to join worlds simply send me back to my homeworld immediately with a slight lagspike during the black-screen that would usually transition into loading the world. This seems to be fixed temporarily by clearing content cache, although it usually does not take long to get back to ~29gb. This happens even if the world has already been downloaded!
Friends have reported having this issue too so it's not just me!

I'm having exactly the same issue.
Whenever I try to enter the world I made, I'm returned to homeworld.
However, if I send myself an invite through the browser and join via that, the issue sometimes doesn't happen.
this is a translated message.Sorry.

needs more information
Is this issue still occurring? If so, can you provide pc specs and logs?

StormRel Yep the issue is still occuring. The World I was trying to join was already in my Cache. I attached a short version of the output log where the error was happening
PC specs:
CPU: Ryzen 9 7900X3D
GPU: Radeon RX 7900 XTX
RAM: 64GB 6000MT/s
Storage: 2x 1TB M.2 Nvme SSDs, 1x 4TB SATA SSD

@StormRel Yep, still going on with me & others! Looking at @whitevampy's specs & output log I can be sure they're having the same issue as me.
Specs:
AMD Ryzen 5 3600XT
GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER
32GB RAM
One other note I have is that it seems to happen with specific worlds, going to a different world can work while others don't (Happened with my own homeworld today, but some of my other worlds were fine.)

StormRel Actually, here's a log of the bug occurring to my homeworld when I tried to return to it, so it would sent me to the default homeworld instead every time I tried

It is not like a crash, but instead I just load into my home world instead of the world I want to join in. The problem is pretty inconsistent and I experienced it only the first 5-15 minutes while playing VRChat. My Cache is at 422.79/425GB. I know my Cache is pretty Large but I never had problems with it.
Deantwo
My content cache is at 29.99 GB, and I have not crashed at all. So the issue doesn't seem to be globally affecting everyone. It could be an issue with your specific computer?
If this really is a cache issue, you can slow down the rate at which your cache is filled, by changing your Avatar Optimization settings to "0 MB Maximum Download Size". Doing this will make all avatars appear as an impostor for you, which is only 1 MB each. Then you can just enable avatars of people you want to see.

Deantwo, I already do these things and more, and can actually update that I'm having the same issue without a full cache! I just get repeatedly sent back to my homeworld. Many friends and others are reporting the same issue.
whitevampy
same problem. I am on build 1650

Can also confirm! My quest 3 have this with actually 1650 installed. With my pico 4 ultra everything ist ok - there i have the older 2025.2.1p3-1629 client.
Does anybody know how i can downgrade the quest client app to check if an older version works better?
