    – open https://lemmy.ml
    – met with a list of posts, most images too small for me to see or read.
    – click on first post so that I can see the image - https://lemmy.ml/post/42503928 – taken to a page where I still can’t see the image I clicked to see – Click on the image, now I can see it.

    – See some comments
    – now I need to click back to continue

    – see another interesting post, image to small, can’t see so I have to click – https://lemmy.ml/post/42501566
    – Still can’t see image so I click on the image – now I’m taken to https://mecha.so/comet#overview
    – WTF, why am I on a different site? Why am I here,where are the comments – Realisze I can’t distinguish between Image posts and Links to a different site. – Why is this so confusing to browse?

      Sounds like you are specifically looking for a client focused on image browsing. In that case I would suggest linking to vger.app, phtn.app or blorp which I linked in another comment. Lemmy 1.0 will also have a card view which admins can set as default, where images are already expanded.

      see another interesting post, image to small, can’t see so I have to click – https://lemmy.ml/post/42501566

      This is only the link preview (indicated by the arrow icon), not an image post. Is the icon too small?
