What I do is to run the exiftool to strip all the metadata from the image. Next, I check if there are any identifying details in the image like landmarks or background details (e.g. stuff on my whiteboard). And finally I check for the unwanted reflections or for the setup that could be recognised outside the community I share the photo with. Last but not least, I never share a photo in more than one place.

    Solid steps. I focus on stripping EXIF and visual checks too. Seeing metadata first can help – exifreader shows it online. Blurring details is wise. Good call on not cross-posting.
