Can confirm, Cobalt can't parse Reddit links for images. That said, Reddit does allow for right-click saving images on reddit.com, and you can save images to your device in the mobile apps, unlike sites like Instagram and Pinterest which block it.

Still would like if Cobalt parses Reddit links too
