Hello friends,
For now I just have a wrapper function that I have binded to RET in
gnus-group-mode-map:
(defun site/gnus-group-select-group () (interactive)
(gnus-group-select-group 100))
to fetch only the newest 100 messages from a group. I have dug into the
manuals for a little bit but I have not found such a variable that would
let me set the default number of articles to fetch.

Hi, as I read from the documentation of gnus-group-select-group, there
is no default number of articles to display.
I think yours is a very good solution to the problem.

You can do this with either per-group group parameters, or for all
groups using the `gnus-parameters' variable, via the `display'
parameter. See (info "(gnus) Group Parameters")
