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?

    I would assume because most videos are taken from mobile now. Camera quality in phones is crazy good now.

      I mean, like I suspect for most people, my phone is my camera too, but it’s perfectly capable of taking landscape videos.

        I think this is going to be a generational divide. Most of my millennial friends will insist on landscape while zoomers tend to default to portrait.

        Right. I only take vertical if I’m showing a tree or a plant but for a scene or most other pics it’s horizontal.

      The large majority of content is also consumed on phones, so confirming to computers is making less sense
