images on the left side would make kbin easier to read

see attached image, but basically having the images on the right side makes it so hard to "read" a post with an image, going back and forth with your eyes to "get" the whole post. So much easier to just put the images between the up-/downvote buttons and the text post.

I don't know if there's a reason for that besides looking different from similar sites. If so, I don't think this is the way, it really puts a strain on your eyes and our brain is not used to absorb information in this way.

Don't know where to post this, but one image interaction I would LOVE to see is being able to open an image with a single tap. Right now, I tap the image, and the post&comments open, then I have to tap it again to get the image to fully open.

I know everything is new, but i think it'll help the folks that are here just to browse the memes.

on image posts, you can click on the image icon under your username. on articles there's no such option for now, I'd love it having there too

You can make images load inline by pressing the generic picture icon under the post.
