Oh damn that’s actually top notch. Still wouldn’t recommend uploading selfies here because there are other methods that honestly are more state-actor oriented, but scrubbing exif isn’t something I’d think any platform would first-thing do. Major kudos.
pretty sure Hexbear scrubs exif on upload because our admins are rad
edit: confirmation

imgur has done it for a long time (maybe always?) I’m pretty sure discord does it too.
Every platform does it. Including Meta, Snap, Pinterest, etc.
I don’t think it’s to protect their users but just to save on storage space
