Mastodon Benefits #143546

Photos uploaded on Mastodon have had it's sensitive info (Metadata) removed... for example, none of this:
- camera name / model
- geo-location
- computer name / author name

VERY USEFUL - METADATA IS CALLED "EXIF" INFO & BETTER REMOVED
IF NOT ON MASTODON YOU NEED TO STRIP THEM ON SOCIAL MEDIA *BEFORE* UPLOADING OR USE A CAMERA APP THAT MINIMIZES IT !!!

Example app = Scrambled Exif

(More here like ImagePipe)

ON DESKTOPS RE-SAVE IT USING BASIC "PAINTBRUSH" TYPE TOOL ALSO HELPS IGNORE THAT DATA
or just use Mastodon only!

I'M GLAD MASTODON SOCIAL DOES IT FOR ME... THANK YOU !
