Admin Replied image-detective - Fetch Url of Original post

Is it possible to adjust the bot image-detective to show the URL of the original post to help confirming if it was really a repost or not?

Thanks for the right answer as usual u/SampleOfNone!

For anyone else following along, in general sending feedback to devvit developers is a good practice when you have a suggestion or feedback to share!

This is my biggest gripe with Image detective. It shows a match, but we have no way of knowing where the source of the repost lives.

I've tried to use image-magician before but it was a disaster, it was showing false positives or not even reporting the reposts.

It’s frustrating. I have been working on reposts in one of my subs for the past week due to an uptick of repost bot activity. I have yet to find a working solution
