  @kronwasser

  Is this also when you’re adding images via mobile? If so, please post in the thread to which @galois linked.

  If this is on your computer, did you rotate the images in file explorer before uploading them? If so, that could be the problem – rotating in file explorer doesn’t change the image’s exif data, so when you upload the image we think it’s still sideways and try to fix it.

  Please either upload the un-rotated image from your computer, or if you want to rotate them, use an image editor to do it rather than file explorer, and export/save the rotated image as a new file before uploading it here.
