that, or whatever you used to rotate image did so by editing exif orientation data, and that got stripped/lost somewhere along the way when posted, so the image unrotated itself (I guess?)

Afaik Lemmy automatically strips EXIF data from uploaded pictures (which is good for privacy, but bad for people who don't rotate their pictures for real I guess)

oh, yeah i dunno about that. i'd prolly save and rotate in an img viewer app. too much effort tho.

edit: ohhhh you mean trying to post a flipped image rather than just view. i'm a dumbass.
