Instagram - Different resolution/quality popup for different monitor resolutions

This has been bugging me for a while. So just want to know if others face this issue as well.

I have a 55/65" tv (3840x2160) connected to my laptop (1366x768) as extended display (not mirror/duplicate).

Now lets take an image for example: https://www.instagram.com/nasa/p/DYKVu24icQA/

When I view this post on 1366x768, I get a popout of 1080x720 72.5KB

When I view this post on 3840x2160, I get a popout of 4096x2731 1.71MB

If you want to replicate this issue, please open the link again on a new tab after moving the window to different monitor.

So screen resolutions affect the quality of image popout.

Is it possible to get the best quality/resolution popout regardless of the resolution ?

Whenever I am away from home on a laptop, I only get the low quality image to save.
