I never had a problem with this. It's not like whole movies or long youtube videos are recorded vertically. The kind of content that is recorded vertically is mainly watched on phones, and it's not like it's unwatchable on any other screen. Never once have I seen anyone say anything about it that is anything more than mild inconvenience about something they really shouldn't care that much about. It's just stereotypical "complaining because you can" bullshit that is so common.
i’m not 110% in agreement (more like 65%) but you deserve an upvote for being the only person in here to defend it
Same. I may not agree with what you say, but I will upvote til dinner your right to say it.
The thing I hate about vertical video is all the footage of rare or historical events that are filmed by someone firehosing their phone back & forth like mad trying to capture the scope of it all, when all they have to do is rotate the phone 90 degrees. Don't make me watch a tsunami through a keyhole. Frame correctly to capture the event.
