  Image preview support for lf (list files) using Überzug

Hello, ive been experimenting with the using the terminal more and ive used catimg to show images in the terminal, and enabled image and pdf preview in the lf (list files) terminal file manager via lfimg and wayland. But the images are blocky and not readable. Ive seen screenshots of terminals with the text perfectly readable and wondered if i had a setting wrong, the terminal cant display the image quality im looking for, or something else. Ive only been using Linux for a short time on hardware and would appreciate help.
