long press the image…

It doesn’t do that for me. It only brings up the menu upon clicking the three dots on the right.

I think buttons would fly in the face of the minimalist aesthetic of the app.

I think my suggestion would only make it more minimalistic.

I don’t think I am explaining it right.

The current image lightbox has four buttons at the bottom - (Upvote), (comments), (share), and (menu)

My suggestion is to replace the (upvote) & (comment) buttons with a wide (download) button. Comments can still be opened with a slide up gesture and there are multiple places to upvote.

(Personal assumption) I think people rarely use the comment button and the upvote button in the lightbox itself.

All libertarians care about is how they can make money and benefit from a situation.

They don’t care others are getting fucked as long as they can have their tea.

They don’t actually want a free market, they want a market where they can burrow their tendrils deep into society and suck off as much as they can.
