Here’s the command if you want to run it too. You need the imagemagick package

      yeah those are good commands especially for the posts with messed up image rotation on Lemmy

        Fun fact: Lemmy (well, pict-rs) tries to keep rotation when stripping tags but fails on certain formats. Funnily enough, it calls imagemagick to do this.

        I submitted a PR a few weeks ago to make the fallback tag stripper keep the orientation tag but I don’t think the fix has been applied :/

          it’s soul crushing juice to submit a bugfix for a big open source project and have it sit in triage forever or closed for an unrelated reason

            Actually it’s even worse because the repo for pict-rs is on the Dev’s private gitea instance and to submit a PR I had to do it the kernel.org way by email and they just went “I can’t reproduce can you tell me more” and I’m like “I cannot I do not know rust, I just know that this is how you can strip all tags and keep orientation” and never got a response.

            Maybe I should fork it and offer my fix and instance admins can choose. :/
