So Signal nukes all the metadata from photos which is nice but it also screws with the date which is really annoying
Another example of privacy tards decreasing usability
@matrix Sounds like increasing usability to me.
@UshioHow?
@matrix
Picture metadata is retarded. Particularly location data since so many pictures these days are taken on phones that try to autotag that shit.
Few people need any of it, but I’ve seen many get fucked up by it.
@UshioRead me OP. I mentioned that removing metadata is nice. I only complained about the date.
I read it. But I think a complete scrubbing of any and all picture data, including dates, actually increases usability these days.
@UshioDate is a simple and easily understandable data point by which to organize photos so removing it increases hassle
@matrixIt only exists in signals db until exported. At that time, apply the date you received the photo. @Ushio
