Edges and thin lines appear fragmented / broken on photos taken with S24 Ultra in Google Photos on a computer/laptop screen

Does anyone experience the same as me, that on the photos taken with S24 Ultra, the edges of objects and thin vertical lines appear fragmented / pixely / broken when you upload the photo to Google Photos and view it there on a computer / laptop screen in a browser (Chrome/Firefox) without any zooming?

So far I have figured that this fragmentation disappears when you start zooming into the picture in Google Photos and also if you re-save the picture e.g. in Irfanview and upload / view the re-saved one. So it is most probably a flaw of the browser or the Google Photo viewer web application inside the browser, but it would be nice if I could get some kind of a workaround on this. I noticed that what happens during the re-saving in Irfanview is that the "Ultra HDR" metadata of the image is lost and Google Photos does not display the property "Ultra HDR" any more next to the resolution in the Image Information data window.

I assume that most probably if I could turn off the "Ultra HDR" metadata for the pictures on the phone itself would help at the cost of loosing some extended color/brightness information, but I have not found such an option yet. I tried turning off the "Super HDR" option in the Special Functions menu, also the "Automatic HDR" option in the Camera Assistant menu, also the turning off the "Intelligent Optimisation" and every other possible option in the normal photo app menu on the phone, but none of them helped solve this issue.

Does anyone have an idea how to solve / get a workaround on this issue?

Look at the strings of the guitars on a computer screen for example in the default zoom setting.

Could you also send feedback via Samsung members app and to Google photos. From what you are saying it sounds like it requires joint effort. Until then fingers crossed work workaround is established/found
