I always remove this data from my screenshots before sharing, but is there any way to prevent this from happening in the first place? I’ve searched and searched, but all I can find is information about how to remove the data after the fact, which I already know how to do, but it would sure be nice if it never got added in the first place. Thanks.

    On lineageOS 20 it records the exact android build string as the Software for me, so “Android lineage_pdx215-userdebug 13 TQ3A.230901.001 b30079afa2”. Which is probably enough to uniquely identify me, and you if you have a less common phone or are on an older or uncommon version.

    Needless to say I am pissed.
