It is not difficult to open a link with a picture if the user uses Lemmy through a browser. However, when you use the Lemmy app, it becomes inconvenient to constantly open pictures through the browser.

    Using Sync so I can't relate to the picture opening in browser.
    Sync is very good with handling that specific part.

    Besides that my point still stands: Less storage needs and being a burden on the ressources of the lemmy instance provider.
