I was mocking too, but things changed when a phone became the device to play back videos. At this point the orientation didn't matter as much.

It got to the point that some services, like YouTube shorts pretty much mandate vertical orientation.

Cursing those services to never be seen on desktop devices because they look so wasteful of screen real state.

You don't always need to use every bit of screen real estate. The goal is watching videos, not min-maxing monitor usage.

It's not so bad when your secondary monitor is vertical lmao

Sure, but then you're viewing it on your secondary monitor.
