    Lemmy removes EXIF data from pictures, since it includes potentially private information such as phone model, where IRL the pic is from, date, time, etc. But as a side effect, it also removes a tidbit of info that says “rotate this pic when showing it”.

    The way that I usually solve this* is by editing the picture in Kolourpaint. Either cropping it or resizing it.

    *by coincidence to post cat pictures. Yours is making such a silly face :3 love it!

      Thank you! I saw someone else having the same issue the other day. Never really considered the rotation being in the metadata
