I have seen several of my image posts (and several other posters pictures) become turned sideways after posting even though the image is right side up before posting. How do I ensure my image won’t get rotated once posted?
Someone else mentioned in a different post that lemmy removes the metadata from photos as a privacy feature, which might be causing this
That’s gotta be it. You can tell images to be displayed rotated instead of actually rotating them through metadata (EXIF flags). That’s for example also how Windows does (or at least did) rotate images when you clicked on the 90° rotation button.
I remember having issues with this before when later loading those images through some code.
I made a post yesterday about this: https://lemmy.world/post/1065037
The TLDR is that your apps are not showing the real rotation of the image. Get an image editor app to fix them before submitting.
