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.

One more try. I sure hope you don't have notifications enabled for all replies...
Edit: well now I'm stumped

UTC now. Am I still the ghost of federation's past?
Edit: seems so?

I had it set to localtime instead of UTC, which for me is -5 hours. Caused me a bit of grief earlier today after making a new post that started out already five hours old!

It seems like a real pickle though. What if I set my time to a year in the future and make a post? Would that post stay at the top of new all year? I guess lemmy should use the received date rather than what is sent but that could be problematic when things are bogged down or having federation issues.

@danQuix0te sorry, I shouldn't have deleted my comment. Still trying to get the time thing sorted out.

I'm taking this opportunity to test my timezone config

It should, but the quality of the image would be lowered doing it that way.

It kinda looks like a really purple Lyreleaf Sage: https://littleprinceplants.com/our-plants/perennials/salvia-lyrata-purple-volcano-lyreleaf-sage/

A group of friends and I had a blast playing this all weekend. The game and that website are both really well-made!

I'm no expert, but that looks like it could be a Canna lily, probably just called arrowroot locally:https://media.sciencephoto.com/image/b7400814/800wm/B7400814-Canna_lily_leaves_Canna_x_generalis_.jpg

In one of Ernest's posts last week he mentioned that account deletions need to be handled manually for now. I'm not sure how long it takes him to work through through the queue, but he mentioned in the post that if for some reason you need that done sooner you can send him an email through the contact form starting with "DELETE MY ACCOUNT" so he can prioritize that.

Most likely! It takes less time to add that meta-data than it does to actually rotate the image, so most camera apps do that to make the picture-taking experience smoother.
