Jerboa is a native-android client for Lemmy, built using the native android framework, Jetpack Compose.

Warning: You can submit issues, but between Lemmy and lemmy-ui, I probably won't have too much time to work on them. Learn jetpack compose like I did if you want to help make this app better.

I posted a picture and I noticed it put it wrong side up. The picture I uploaded was taken the right way. Can someone help me why it did what it did? I used this new android app to upload and post.

Added the pic here.

Lemmy strips most EXIF metadata when uploading an image, this is common behavior to prevent leaking identifiable information like geolocation. It seems though that it strips the orientation tag too which your camera app, photo editor or gallery might use to change the rotation without actually editing the image itself.

This is an error on lemmy's end but a workaround would be to rotate the image in an app that edits the picture itself like Google Photos.
