Description from store

This Chrome extension allows you to load Reddit images directly, bypassing the HTML pages that contain the images. It supports URLs from i.redd.it, preview.redd.it, and external-preview.redd.it. Additionally, requests to www.reddit.com/media?url=$IMAGE_URL (the HTML page) are automatically redirected to $IMAGE_URL (the direct image URL).

Note: By adjusting the extension settings, you can prefer redirecting to the original high-resolution image URL (i.redd.it) over the preview URLs.

Does not work properly when posts have 2 or more images It would be better if it opens a new tab also

Hey reddit, when I click "open image in new tab", I don't mean "open a junky web page with the image in it". I was already on one of those when I was in the post page. Thanks to extension author for fighting internet encrappifcation, it just works (for real).

It doesn't work anymore. I think reddit did a change recently that bricked this extension. I will update my rating to 5 stars if/when this gets fixed.
