How to Stop Facebook from Killing Photo Quality: Upload photos in the highest resolution by enabling 'HD' in Facebook settings. Go to Settings & Privacy > Settings > Media and Contacts > Upload Photos in HD. Ensure your images are already optimized: save them as PNG files whenever possible and resize them to 2048 pixels on the longest side. This reduces compression and preserves quality.
