Not a dev, but i'd suggest to test if it can be reproduced. Also test with a different camera, and try to find out if perhaps your camera application puts in wrong orientation info.
edit: this might be the same issue --> https://lemmy.world/post/39678 (funny synchronicity that the "all" feed of my server brings up these two posts from different instances next to each other)
Jerboa
Jerboa is a native-android client for Lemmy, built using the native android framework, Jetpack Compose.
Warning: You can submit issues, but between Lemmy and lemmy-ui, I probably won't have too much time to work on them. Learn jetpack compose like I did if you want to help make this app better.

Lemmy strips most EXIF metadata when uploading an image, this is common behavior to prevent leaking identifiable information like geolocation. It seems though that it strips the orientation tag too which your camera app, photo editor or gallery might use to change the rotation without actually editing the image itself.
This is an error on lemmy's end but a workaround would be to rotate the image in an app that edits the picture itself like Google Photos.
