Clean Image Opener is a simple add-on that helps you open the original version of an image - without all the extra stuff added to the URL. Right-click on any image and choose Open in new tab (without parameters) to strip out query strings that may cause compression, format changes, or tracking.
For example, it turns a link like: https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/165bfff2-1b34-41b0-b094-026186e6b0ba.jpeg?format=webp&thumbnail=256 into: https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/165bfff2-1b34-41b0-b094-026186e6b0ba.jpeg
This often results in higher-quality or original-format images - just one right-click away.

Description
Adds a right-click menu option to images
Any query parameters are stripped from the image link before opening it in a new tab
The purpose is to remove any image manipulation (usually resolution reduction, compression, or conversion to webp by image CDNs or media delivery platforms) triggered by the query parameters.
For example:
*
https://example.com/image.jpg?format=webp&thumbnail=256get's converted into:
*
https://example.com/image.jpgusually resulting in a larger or better version of the original image.
