10 years ago, a person would be insulted for filming a video in portrait instead of landscape. Now, old landscape videos are being cropped and resized to fit in a portrait player. (lemmy.world)

Why would you do that? People don't even watch shows in portrait even when they use their phones. They watch short form content designed to fill idle moments. It is nearly exclusively bullshit filler or one person content. Real content will continue to be viewed in landscape forever.
