I have searched the existing feature requests, both open and closed, to make sure this is not a duplicate request.
The feature
Currently clicking the "Copy Image" icon in the detail view of an image will load a
png
version of the image's thumbnail into the clipboard, no matter what the original file-type is. If I want to share pictures out of band (copy image, paste into Discord) I will always get a low resolution image with suboptimal compression (tho of course discord then goes and converts it to png anyway, but at least at full resolution).I wish "Copy Image" would have the same effect as choosing "Download" from the kebab menu, but into the clipboard instead of to disk.
Alternatively it could be made more obvious that what you're actually copying is the thumbnail, not the original image, and that the correct way to put an image from immich into your clipboard is to first download it and then copy the file.
