For some devices (PC and phone), photos on Connect posts do not show up. This only occurs on the photos I copy and paste. For the photos I uploaded, they show up fine. But on my PC and phone, both types of photos show up fine. How do I fix this problem?

This happen because when you paste a photo copied from a website or, that I suppose is your case, from Google Photo, in fact you are not pasting (uploading) the photo, but simply embedding it.
When you embed a photo in fact you generate a command like this; img src=“your image URL” (just switch to HTML to verify)
The visibility of the photo on Connect depends of the visibility status of the source.
The photo on your account on Google Photo are visible only to you, so you have to share them first, to make the photos publicly visible
For more information about uploading photos on the community please read: Uploading a photo on Connect? Read these guidelines first

If this is the case, if i copy a photo from my pc hard drive and paste it on connect, no one will see it, right?
