You highlight the problem with the suggested solution and also point to other photo problems. Yeah, you can post downsampled and resized photos easily. But that's an added step some users can't swing! You'd think all-powerful google would build a solution into Groups. Nope. Sometimes photos post to actual size and you get insanely huge images that you can't zoom out or easily scroll past! Especially when browsing on mobile, as you point out.
