Hello,

I moderate a couple of troubleshooting/support reddits where redditors often upload pictures or videos of their computer problem.

For whatever reason, these graphics often appear at a 90° angle when viewed in Reddit.

This makes it more difficult to read, resulting in less interaction with redditors, and a longer time to receive an answer to their question.

It would be nice if moderators had the option to rotate a post's image or video in 90° increments (90°, 180°, and 270°) so that it is viewed right-side up. This could also make it easier for Reddit's AI to scrape text and recognize objects in them.

Regards,

Aryeh Goretsky

  • Definitely agreed. Though they should offer that to OP too of course.

    Hello,

    I thought about that, but was worried people might start randomly rotating their uploaded images and videos, which would make them difficult for others to read/watch.

  • I agree. To correct poster’s mistake. Or a mistake with the photograph. Or a Reddit mistake.

    Also I wish we had the ability to pin another users comments. I moderate food subs and I would like to be able to pin another users recipe to the top of the thread.
