Quirk or not, if I tell a friend that Thing They Are Doing really bothers me, I would be very upset if they laughed and kept doing it.
Oh yes, I agree, which is why I said if the LW continues posting photos, she needs to be prepared to deal with the potentially friendship-ending fallout.
My kids aren't old enough yet to be aware of social media, but when they are, I will respect their wishes on how to manage photos of them. Between peers, though, it is unrealistic (maybe a better word than unreasonable) to expect the same consideration. Posting a solo shot of a friend might be a little odd, but posting group photos is so very normal that I'm not surprised the LW is "thrown off" by her friend's demands.
