view reddit images directly

The View Reddit Images Directly Chrome extension streamlines image browsing on Reddit by loading images directly from common Reddit image URLs such as i.redd.it, preview.redd.it, and external-preview.redd.it. Instead of navigating through Reddit's HTML media pages, this extension redirects requests to the direct image URLs, offering a faster and cleaner viewing experience.

With customizable settings, users can prioritize loading the original high-resolution images over preview versions. This independent, privacy-respecting tool enhances Reddit image review without any affiliation with Reddit, LLC.
