You can share higher-resolution photos and scans from iCloud (links below), or can switch to a messaging app that doesn’t over-compress images and otherwise send potato-grade image resolutions, or via email.


Based on what I can find, there’s no way to bypass this image compression either within Facebook whether for posting materials, or sending materials through Facebook Messenger.
