@mrjxtr This is a known issue. We dont support image preview using image protocols yet, but only a pixelated preview using unicode characters.

Its something we will be fixing. But we might first prioritise some bugs fixes and performance issues.

@yorukot What do you think about a config like hide_image_preview ?

@yorukot What do you think about a config like hide_image_preview ?

We already have toggle_file_preview_panel and default_open_file_preview Is it necessary to add this flag?

hide image preview will be nice temporary fix

default_open_file_preview blocks everything

@yorukot I think its okay to add disable_image_preview or hide_image_preview for now.

toggle_file_preview_panel hotkey and default_open_file_preview config blocks all file previews including text file preview, and preview of what content is in the currently selected directory .

@lazysegtree sure!
