If you share something with ANY metadata, either delete or encrypt it before sharing
Right, it's just a tedious process doing that each time you were to share something...
It is not, there are apps that do all that for you. E.g. https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.jarsilio.android.scrambledeggsif/ couldn't be easier
Nice find! Thanks for sharing :)
A lot of platforms strip out the meta data. All social media platforms and all messengers I've tried strip out the meta data. There might be some that don't?
Does the meta get stripped locally or on their servers though? I suspect locally.
Thanks for reminder!
