I think “forcing” is the keyword here. If the user doesn’t know clicking an image will fullscreen it, I would say thats problematic.
One solution could just be adding a warning that images will be opened in fullscreen.
A better solution might be to show a fullscreen icon when hovering over an image as it would describe to the user what might happen if clicked.
