Most mature social networks do remove this information to prevent users accidentally sharing their locations. Can someone positively say whether Lemmy is aware enough to strip extra information from photos?

    You could check by downloading a bunch of photos and looking at the exif data, I suppose. Someone said the other day it isn’t, which would be definitely a problem. It’s also possible a specific instance could not strip it, which is worth checking for your own photos. I noticed that photos seem to retain the original filename which is not optimal.
