Google Photos features two storage classes:
- High quality – Unlimited free storage.
- Original – Limited free storage
My phone backup mode is set to High Quality, so I have no space problems with it. However, when I upload images from the web console, they are kept in their Original quality.
Is there a way to upload images to Google Photos via the web interface in High, not Original, quality?
P.S., Google Photos allows me to compress the uploaded images after they have been uploaded, but I'm looking for a way to automate the process, rather than remembering to compress after I upload.

In Settings, you can set whether web uploads are "High Quality" or "Original".
