Vertical video is the norm now. All video is vertical now. People actively wish horizontal videos were vertical. They yearn for vertical video even when they're not circumstantially limited to it. A kid asked me to hold his phone and film him doing a trick at a skate park last week and when I held it in landscape mode he stopped me, took the phone, changed it to portrait and continued. Ten years ago vertical video was considered digital AIDS. It was to be avoided at all cost. Now it's the golden standard.

Yeah

And that's a bad thing because?

My 8yo nephew told me he refuses to watch a video if it's not vertical. He never watched landscape footage in his life.

>Ten years ago
Ten years ago people would watch videos on computer monitors and TVs instead of their phones because the phone screens were too small
>>
>>107848874
Because vertical video is still digital AIDS. The only thing that has truly changed is just that everybody's a bugchaser now.
>>
>>107848840
You want to share something on social media you make vertical videos. You want to watch it later on a screen you make it horizontal. It's not that hard.

>>107848889
Yeah except that never happened

This Pic is unrealistic, the tits would just compress under load and there would be no kissing barrier

This is insightful

The pic is unrealistic because Frieren is slender enough to fit into Fern's cleavage, rendering the kissing barrier ineffective.

also people who take horizontal video and embed it in a vertical container with black bars on the top and bottom

my mom unironically pretty much only watches YouTube shorts on her tv and half of them are just snippets from horizontal videos with black bars above and below them.
so, you're watching a horizontal video on your horizontal tv, but with huge fields empty space on all sides of the image which is now thumbnail sized.

I love the future

The progression of technology does not always make things better. 15 years ago people were passing the time by watching movies and TV shows that had to be produced and greenlit by people whose jobs were to gamble on what audiences would want to see most. There was no other way to make a film or television broadcast. Maybe there was public access television but it was never the best material available meaning it never did well. All in all, film and television was heavily gatekept by tastemakers. Even the absolute trash that got produced back then was better than what most people waste time on now, because now there's YouTube.
Anyone can upload anything to YouTube at any time for any reason from anywhere. Meaning you no longer need the permission of middlemen to reach your audience. You just make shit and put it out. Thing is, audiences aren't very discerning so the bar for quality is clipping through the bottom of Hell. Some of the most viewed videos on YouTube right now are nonsensical AI generated slop. Millions of people who would've been watching maybe Jackass 15 years ago are now spending their time watching videos wherein a robotic voice narrates a script clearly generated by ChatGPT that is full of inaccuracies and outright lies, and that's just normal now. The technology has improved but the standards have fallen as a result.

It's only going to get worse.
