How can I add the option to open images (png, jpg, webp) directly into my photos app?
Sometimes on my Mac I want to open a image that could be opened in a new tab, directly into the Preview app (the default photo viewing app). It would be great if I could have a context menu option when right click images, to open them in the app, I wonder if there’s an addon to do this.

There was a series of "Open with..." add-ons but over time the reviews deteriorated so I don't know whether any of those would be worth a try.
Until another good option comes along, you can continue using the built-in approach:
- right-click (one button: Ctrl+click) > Save Image As...
- click the Downloads button on the toolbar to open the drop-down panel > click the saved image to open in the system viewer
Can you tell me what were addons to use for this?

This is the one I remember, but I never used it myself because I didn't trust the developer:
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/open-with-photoshop/
I don't know whether there is/was a similar one for Preview.
I found the RunWith addon and create a shell script to use with it to open images in the Preview app. I appreciate your help though.
