Details
From the project READMEViewing Imgur Images
WebFetch cannot load imgur URLs — imgur blocks that access path.
To view an imgur image, download it with curl and read the local file:
curl -L -o /tmp/image.png "https://i.imgur.com/example.png"
Then read /tmp/image.png directly using the Read tool.
This applies to all i.imgur.com image links.
