First, I don't abide by "apps".
I don't give a shit for tik tok, instagram or the jew bullshit of facebook so eat a diseased cock if that is how you live your life.
Car forums and YouTube. That is it as far as internet action for me. You can post correctly recorded videos on both and that is all I give a damn about. Fucking Steve Jobs should be exhumed and burned with a flamethrower for starting the whole thing.
I've seen links to other social media where proper landscape videos DO play. Are you claiming that you can't turn the phone sideways to fully fill the screen? If so, then fuck all that. Accepting vertical video is like accepting a radio that cuts back the treble and bass to 1/3 it's correct value or a restaurant that serves food with 1/3 the taste. The vertical bullshit is shortchanging everyone from a full experience. You're putting the dick halfway in, you're leaving the party early, you're lifting off the throttle at the 900 ft mark, you're eating the pie without the Kool Whip.
Why accept what is clearly inferior?
