MODERATORS
it's not stupid if that's the format it gets viewed most in
Rotate your phone you dirty savage! Or don't idc really.
I think you just proved the meme lol
all I'm saying is if you're recording something for tiktok or Instagram, it's going to look best if it's recorded vertically
Yes, but we also hate tiktok and instagram.
Hell I refuse to acknowledge either, mind you I also dont enjoy the content of either.
How is this controversial. If its made to be viewed on a phone then I don't see the reason to film hoizontally. Epecially the type of content that most people seem to make on like tiktok etc. seems better in vertical view.
it looks like it's controversial because any app that has vertical content must be terrible 🤷♂️
I mean I don't perticularly like the content of any of those apps (lemmy is the only real social media i use). But that doesn't change the fact that they are using the correct format for the job.
don't get me wrong, I agree. Furthermore, despite the problems with apps like TikTok, I do think there's an incredible amount of amazing content created on that platform. It can be such a showcase of the creativity of the average person, it just sucks that it's pretty objectively terrible in multiple ways.
Lemmy definitely showing its older age skew here lol. Almost anything related to any social media will be better vertical. (Even lemmy itself ironically)
Hell the vertical video trend on TikTok this year was a phenomenal trend and I even recall seeing A24 doing a vertical trailer cut just for TikTok.
