Why are so many YouTube videos portrait rather than landscape now? - eviltoast

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?

    TIL, that’s just screwed. Sometimes short form content can be interesting, but 99% of the time I want a video I can watch along to. It’s terrible and I don’t understand the intense appeal these have. Didn’t Vine start it all?
