Option for automatic Exif and Metadata removal

It would be great if there was an option to automatically get all Metadata/Exif removed from images/files to protect the privacy of the uploader.

Thanks for the suggestion!

That's not something I'd implement, but I'd accept a PR if someone else was interested in adding this feature.

That would be bloat. Install ImageMagick (you already have it) and issue mogrify -strip /path/to/image to get rid of exif data.

it would not be bloat, people forget to clear EXIF. Thats how I get the GPS coordinates from internet people.

people forget to clear EXIF

Do they? Do those who care about opsec forget to to clear EXIF, do they forget to disable attaching location within the camera UI once and for all?

I've already accepted this as a feature I view as in scope, so there's no need to debate whether it's in scope.

It's not something I'd implement myself, but I'd accept a PR if someone wants to contribute the feature.
