I’m STILL insulted. Portrait videos suck to look at.

Somehow I actually read, “arrested” instead of “insulted” first time!

That’s not recent…

Black bars get added to both formats often, sometimes back and forth until the video is a tiny rectangle and 90% useless black space

And people still talk shit about when someone used the wrong one to record.

I’m relegated to just talking shit on people who clearly have a copy of the original video, but upload it to the internet by playing it on their screen and shakily pointing their phone’s camera at it rather than just uploading the fucking file.

I blame iOS’s poor file management.

I still don’t like vertical videos. My natural field of view is landscape and portrait feels crowded and stressful. Also vertical videos have to be watched 2-3 times to see everything, because the person filming has to pan the camera so much, and they usually move too quickly. It’s like everyone forgot that a phone can be rotated.
