Works fine for me, you're just doing it wrong.
When I care about pictures in a web page I want to read on the kobo, I save it from the web browser, import it into calibre, use calibre's epub editor to run some saved rules to delete junk, and then have calibre send it to the kobo as a kepub which has zoomable images.
If there's a web page / blog that you visit regularly, it's possible to make a recipe (there's a lot that come with calibre) that can do all that automatically and do some pretty fancy automatic editing and even filter and inject missing images automatically.
You just didn't do enough research.
Also, web pages are messy, web designers like to find creative ways to make it difficult to read their pages offline. I think some of them break Pocket intentionally and they fill their pages with interactive stuff that looks terrible on an e-reader. All that stuff has to be cleaned out and handled separately for each web page. (Some of the simpler cleanup stuff is enough for maybe 60% of the web pages.)
