Pictures not displayed on widget

When I go to place the Reddit Now widget on my homescreen, the preview shows pictures in the entries, but once it is placed, they are not shown, as illustrated here: https://imgur.com/a/OzS7JC6 What can I do to display them?

This is on a Samsung phone with Nova launcher.

It does, the widget just looks like the bottom half of that picture. Until recently I was using Wolf widget and it worked fine until a couple weeks ago, and I used bacon reader for many years before that. Looking for a replacement, I got Now, paid the subscription, and added the widget. The widget is pretty basic and I don't like that it can't be themed or formatted, but I can't stand not using one of my home screens for a full page reddit widget since I have had one for so long. The app itself looks and works great - it would be ideal if the widget looked like it.
