#### Why would you like to it?
Would give users a blurry preview to help them decide if they wanted to click on the image to see it or not.

#### How would you like to achieve it?

### Have you considered any alternatives?

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by locating the client code for the “show images” setting and blurhash or blank-placeholder rendering; done would mean deciding and documenting whether hidden images should display their blurhash preview instead.
