I just used gThumb recently to try to post something I had inverted, but posting it to sopuli/lemmy scrubbs the exif data and it was posted as if I didn't do anything.
So, gThumb uses exif data to modify pictures which is likely what is added.
*What alternative are you using?

Yes, uploading to Mastodon and Lemmy will likely automatically wipe EXIF data by those sites.

For image cropping I've switched to Gwenview which I'm pleased with.
Thanks.
Go to Preferences>Extensions. there is an extension for EXIF support. turn it off and then try again and see if the same thing happens
Cool, that works. Thank you.
There's also a plugin that scrubs metadata. But you have to use it manually from the tool menu.
didnt know, thanks
My favorite general image viewer is nomacs.
