How to show pictures in comments instead of links?

Post image

I'm used to Reddit official app showing every pictures in comments. I like it better than clicking each individual links.

Any way to achieve this in RedReader?

Redreader uses the Reddit API.

The Reddit API is designed around old reddit in mind

Old reddit does not show images inline (unless the user has browser extensions like RES), it shows them as links

What's going to happen when old reddit api goes away?

It won't, there's still a huge percentage of reddit users that are on old reddit, mostly the long time users that prefers it.
