When loading images from any input form (transmission, theme, etc.), there is no loader (pulsating or progress bar) indicating to wait. On the mobile device, after selecting an image in the stream, it may take a few seconds to display the loaded image. Users will try to upload the image again thinking that the first time it didn't work.

Agreed. This is the first confusion that users have.
The problem is, that the upload does not happen (is cancelled in the background) when the user clicks 'Save' before the image thumbnails are generated.
Therefore, the result is that people think the image uplosf/attachment functionality does not work.

Because it is experienced as a bug.

I do agree that this needs to be solved, but I would actually consider this a feature request or task. The functionality is working, albeit there is a UX issue in some cases (slow connection+phone)

It works for topics (and I assume other file types) but does not work for post and comment yet. I think that also needs to be done as part of this story. See attached movies for example: https://github.com/goalgorilla/open_social/files/3178591/loader-movies.zip

Marking as needs work.

It works now and is a huge improvement to the UX of uploading images to posts, comments or content. Thanks!
