That’s the real problem. The app he is using reduces the image to optimize memory usage, but if the image has too many pixels in either direction, it ends up decimating too much.
I ran into that issue with one of the Lemmy clients when I was trying them out, but can’t remember which one it was. If I remember correctly, it should be something that you can turn off, but it can drastically slow down how long it takes to display some images.
Huh? This image has enough pixels to be printed on a facade-sized billboard.

Oh interesting, that might be it. I’m using Sync.
In Thunder, the preview is super blurry and unreadable, but once opened it looks fine.
I’m pretty sure the reddit app I used to use (Relay) had the same issue.
