Photographers are going to love the @pixelfed redesign.

Full EXIF data preservation, ICC profile management, optional geolocation support and so much more.

We're building what Instagram never will.

@dansup @pixelfed super excited for exif support and geolocations. Those were two of my most requested. In order to keep servers up and running, could there be donation options that grant you increased upload sizes but at the same time you're helping maintain the server?

@dansup @pixelfed and alt text is really a great feature I enjoy already 😉

@dansup @pixelfed exciting, but I really want a redesigned 'album' interface because Instagram is not the be all and end all of photo sharing. Great stuff, just not great for sharing multiple photos from events as it stands.

@dansup @pixelfed I really hope exifdata preservation is opt-in! My expectation as a user is that my app/platform will strip away any exifdata of uploaded images/videos by default.

@BafDyce @pixelfed Oh yeah it is, EXIF preservation is opt-in and users will be asked prompted about adding limited fields (like device, iso, etc).

We will strip geolocation data, unless you explicitly check a box during each compose session.

I have the same question / wish for this feature as @BafDyce:

As a Pixelfed admin I want to be able to turn this feature off as a standard for all users.
All users should be able to turn it off and on as a standard. And they should be able to turn it off and on for each posting.
But when they post without location, the location should not be saved for later use.

@dansup @pixelfed too bad the iOS app is broken.

@sharpgrain @pixelfed its not, try logging out and back in again, this will be fixed in the next release!

@dansup while you are touching Location fix the lat/lng properties. Those are floats in a string currently while the spec wants them float. Noticed while working on a activitypub server an debugging location ingestion. Wanted to file a bug but never got around to it sorry 😬

@dansup @pixelfed
Is EXIF preservation optional? Sanitizing EXIF data is a common privacy practice

@dansup @pixelfed very excited for this! Hopefully it also preserves ISO 21496-1 gain maps!

@[email protected] does this include webstatement, c2pa/cai, tdm policy? @[email protected]

@dansup Ah, finally, correctly rotated photos from iOS without the „rotate 360 degrees manually before posting“ dance in @pixelfed?!

@dansup @pixelfed I think different motivations for each.

@dansup @pixelfed too bad the web client still downscales to 2MP, which seems to be several years old bug since the iOS app apparently doesn't?

@dansup very cool!
