The sheer number of videos taken “the wrong way round” (for my computer’s monitor) is mind-boggling. I get that some people watch videos on their phones, but is it really that many?

    Yes mobile devices have far surpassed desktop / laptop computers in usage numbers as of years ago. Landscape was probably the preferred video format for a long time because it works for both mobile and desktop but the mobile dominance is so high at this point in life that I’ll bet no one cares.

      On my phone I prefer landscape though. I don’t watch any videos in portrait so I skip them. It’s no effort to flip the phone sideways lol…
