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.
