So it seems there probably is either software to sort them or a script
that would sort on the date shown by "file."

What can I do to accomplish this?

Use exiftool to rename the files based on the creation date:
http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/#filename

The corresponding Fedora-package is perl-Image-ExifTool.

Try
dnf install perl-Image-ExifTool
or
dnf install /usr/bin/exiftool


Another helpful tool in cases like the OP's is jhead (Package jhead), a tool which allows to manipulate jpgs' exif data. I am using it to achieve similar purposes as the OP in shell scripts.
