Hey just FYI, the peek feature was intentionally implemented to use the thumbnail resolution of the image in order to make the peek as fast as possible. Since the thumbnail is already loaded to show the post, the peek should be instant. Usually it looks fine, however there are definitely some that are very low quality and make the peek useless. Maybe we could load the full resolution in the background and upgrade on the fly?

Upgrade on the fly sounds good, and if the image is cached anyway seems like there's no point in loading the thumbnail
