When opening posts linking to imgur galleries the built-in browser shows the imgur site properly but all the images are blank. Opening the link in the external browser works.

Imgur's website throws a javascript error which prevents it from loading the gallery's content.
Ideally uReadIt's WebView component could catch that error and proceed anyway, but I haven't found a way to do that.
So for now I've made uReadIt provide a desktop browser User Agent string, this stops Imgur from loading the broken javascript. It's not as nice as the mobile view, but until Imgur fixes their JS, or I can tell the WebView to ignore errors, it'll have to do.
