Hexbear strips out exif data, including rotation, in an effort to make it less trivial to doxx anyone that uploads a photo. Many cameras and image editing softwares will just use exif rotation data rather than actually remapping the pixels to be the right way up, because it’s computationally easier. When hexbear strips out the exif data, it also strips out that rotation data, resulting in sideways or upside down images.

Yep! Cropping an image will work, as it does mean that the file would actually need to have core attributes changed, so your image editor will actually create a new file instead of just adding the instruction telling image viewers to just display it turned.

If you’re on Android, the simple gallery app on f-droid actually rotates the image. I just rotate it forward, then save, then backwards and save again.

Lol yeah the hexbear image uploader is just broke in that way. Had it happen to me a few times.

Also that rbg book is @PoorlyAgedThings material.

It’s based on the phisical pixel geometry of the image. When it’s uploaded, the soft remap is lost with all the other image metadata

Create post

It’s the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances’ admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
