Not sure if it's just me but when looking at that in chrome on my phone the picture looks quite blurry and it's hard to make out much. Doesn't help that there doesn't seem to be a way to full screen it.

Load the page on desktop mode then click on the image. imgr is owned by reddit, so it's been fully enshitified as well.
