    Camera apps nowadays “correct” for that and do mirror the image for preview

    Huh, I always thought people who post flipped photos are just technically challenged (and/or have really poor eye for detail to not notice it). Never considered someone doing that on purpose just to further their own delusion of what they look like.

      It’s more about the image being saved looking like the one I saw in the preview when taking it.
