Long press on image no longer gives options such as open image

One feature I've noticed that has been missing lately is the ability to long press on an image, notably in Google Search, and be given an option to open the image. I have to visit the site instead and then use long press. Trying it on DuckDuckGo brings up an option to view the file without having to go to the site.

Is this a change brought on by Google changing things on their end or is there another reason? And is there any chance of it coming back?

@azhrei There is an open image in new tab option.

On Chrome there is view image, that opens the image in a pop-up.

@azhrei Sounds more like Google trying to prevent copying images,
