Yea didn’t realise it was just an image, I was responding to the “doesn’t show in history” comment.

Oh right. Yeah I haven’t had the Facebook app installed on my phone in like a decade.
But yeah, clicking on an image on the Facebook website doesn’t actually add it to your browser history, because Facebook tries to act like an SPA, a decision they made seemingly specifically to frustrate the user. Because in addition to not adding clicked images to your browser history, they also will refresh the page if you tab away and come back after a minute or two.
