I’m using EndeavourOS with KDE.
The display is correctly oriented when logged in but it doesn’t rotate correctly when I’m logged out.
EDIT: corrected the post. This happens when logged out, locking the screen has it displayed correctly.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

How do you think the OP is supposed to know that "SDDM" is the issue to look up? You don't get to enforce another person's effort. If all you want to provide is "you're looking for 'SDDM,' that would provide help and empower them without sounding like you're biting the newbie for not knowing everything.
Yes. I would assume that the problem is in X11 or Wayland before thinking it could be SDDM, frankly. But even then, googling "Linux login screen" doesn't immediately reveal SDDM to be the point of concern.
I'm not moving any goalposts at all. I'm expressing how inexperience and bad assumptions can make one's searching unfruitful through no fault of their own. That's all I've ever been saying.
Ah, you made an edit. Yeah, "kde login rotation" does, but "EndeavourOS login rotation" gives you no results mentioning SDDM. Giving people the benefit of the doubt costs you nothing over assuming that they're lazy, and the added bonus is that you don't sound like a jerk.
