Error: binary not found: cannot find binary path #4

First thank you for this wonderful plugin! inline image functionality is the only thing missing in Vim. judging from the sample videos, vim-graphical-preview makes Vim a better file viewer with true inline images unlike other available options that utilize search and pop-up solutions etc.

I have followed the installation guide and plugins were installed correctly along with all dependencies including rust stable toolchain.
however I can't get it to work.

vim: set filetype=graphical-preview : wont load any images
vim: set filetype=markdown.graphics : Vim displays Error: binary not found: cannot find binary path.

I made sure the correct path for rust is set in .zshrc export PATH="$HOME/.cargo/bin:$PATH" and tried all other PATH methods just incase (.zshenv) (.profile) and (~/.cargo/env) etc.

I have also tried installing rustup from the Arch repository and manually using the link from the installation guide (with rustup from the Arch repository executables live in /usr/bin, instead of ~/.cargo/bin)

Tested using a bare bones vim without any options or plugins other than the two mentioned in the installation guide.
Tested With and without tmux.

I managed to get image preview working just fine in vifm using vifmimg
Terminal: Alacritty

Am I missing something? how can I get it to work?
