Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility.

imagemagick
is really useful. You might also like these commands.mogrify
is also part ofimagemagick
Imagemagick commands can be tricky and bing gpt4 has been great at helping me construct them and write bash/zsh functions with less pain
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. :/
oh... yeah it would be nice if the code were a little more open than that...
Well I mean the code is open. You can search for it, read it and even clone it, you just can't create an account to open a PR or an issue for that matter.
yeah normally I hear people say "open software but not open governance."
