The browser extension that I've always wanted for Reddit... download buttons for easily saving images within posts. It's exactly what a data hoarder needs! Does not require Reddit login.

Github repo

Features

Adds buttons to Reddit posts and inside galleries for easy one-click downloads
Supports downloading single images, entire image galleries, and GIFs
Works on both the Reddit feed and individual post pages
Detects the highest resolution version of images for download

[!WARNING] Currently the extension doesn't work on videos due to some m3u8 shenanigins I couldn't get to work. Please feel free to help with an issue or pull request.

Supported Browsers:

Chromium-based

Browser	Last Tested Version (Chromium Engine)
Arc	1.63.1 (129.0.6668.90)
Brave	1.67.123 (126.0.6478.126)
Chrome	126.0.6478.127 (126.0.0.0)
Chromium	128.0.6580.0 (128.0.0.0)
Opera	111.0.5168.61 (125.0.6422.143)
Vivaldi	6.8.3381.46 (126.0.0.0)

Other

Browser	Requires
Firefox	127.0.2
Safari	Doesn't work natively with Safari, but the Tampermonkey® extension (Safari v6-11) or the paid Mac App Store version (Safari v12+) could work. I have not tested either, though.

Installation

Not added to the Chrome Web store or Firefox Add-ons yet, but may be in the future.

Browser Extension (manual):

Clone this repository or download the latest version's ZIP file and extract it
Open your Chromium-based browser and navigate to the extensions page (e.g., chrome://extensions)
Enable "Developer mode" in the top right corner
Click "Load unpacked" and select the directory containing the extension files
The extension should now be installed and active

Userscript (Greasyfork/Tampermonkey):

Install Tampermonkey for your browser
Click on this link to open the script in Tampermonkey: Reddit Download Button Script
Click on the "Install" or "Update" button
The script should now be active on Reddit

TODO

[ ] Figure out downloading m3u8 videos
[X] ~~ZIP download option for multiple images~~
[ ] Add UI for extension settings
[ ] Include metadata in ZIP file for the downloaded images/post (title, author, comments, etc.)
[ ] Support downloading multiple inline images/videos from text posts

Changelog

1.3.5 - 2025-04-22

Fixed

#7 Fixed images not being downloaded at highest resolution due to incorrectly identifying the zoomable element. Downloads overall seem to be faster now with these changes (fingers crossed).
Preview download button and others downloading from i.redd.it urls now uses GM_xmlhttpRequest (Tampermonkey only, unpacked extensions through chrome doesn't support or play nice with this) to bypass CORS.
#6 Fixed images not having their correct extension when multiple extensions are present in the post. Like a .gif and a .png, default .png would be used for both.
Not sure how or why, but maybe file previews in macOS are back to normal since we're downloading form the i.redd.it urls? Not even sure if this was script issue or a problem for other OS as well.

Removed

Removed the installation instructions for manual "load unpacked" method. It doesn't play nice with the CORS policy of i.redd.it urls or the GM_xmlhttpRequest function used by tampermonkey. It's just not the best way to use it.
#2 Removed the ZIP download functionality because it's broken right now and I'm not sure how to fix it. Maybe will be added back if I add UI. Reduces tampermonkey script size by ~100kb, so that's a plus. Reference to #2.
