Yet to see a definitive statement for my choice of reddit browser, "joey for reddit"

It has a "hold for popover" feature which makes skim reading and image preview much easier. I find myself doing it in browsers, wishing they did the same thing: thumbnail of an image? Just hold to see full size. It's a remarkably useful gui shortcut.

I use a chrome extension called Imagus that will load any linked image on mouseover (either instantly or after a configurable delay). The image can be shown as large as your current browser window and it will even load links to albums in such a way where scrolling while mouse-overed or pressing left and right on the keyboard will advance between images.

Thanks. This may be exactly what I need!

iOS safari does this
