Description

Disables Reddit's image view page, allowing image files to be viewed directly

When navigating to an image file on Reddit, like when right-clicking an image and selecting “Open image in new tab”, Reddit displays the image within its image view page. Disabling this page allows the image to be viewed independently, without the surrounding Reddit interface.

Source code: https://github.com/denarnold/Reddit-Image-Opener

* In earlier versions of this extension, there was an 'Open Image' button that provided convenient access to the source images of posts. However, due to constraints imposed by Reddit's redesign in 2024, this feature is no longer available.

works well. looking at the code, seems to work efficiently, since it works on the network request level and does not change things on web pages through a content script.
