Description
I prefer not loading any images by default. There doesn't appear to be a setting which affects the image previews in comments (example post, search for giphy.com). These images may be loaded from external-preview.redd.it.

Research direction
Start by locating the comment-rendering code and the image-loading path used for inline previews, especially previews from external-preview.redd.it. Add an option that prevents those images from loading by default while leaving comment text available; verify the behavior with the relevant comment display checks.
