Is anyone actually watching YouTube Shorts? I mean, not accidentaly clicking one thinking it's a regular video, but deliberately watching them?

  I installed an extension blocking them. It's VVS[1] on steroids and annoying. [1] https://nl.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verticaal_Video_Syndroom https://nl.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verticaal_Video_Syndroom

    Funny how panoramic/horizontal arms race between film producers and TV producers calmed overnight. I was prepared to ask a snarky question about vertical movies going mainstream but apparently there has been already a relevant festival since 2014.

      It's one thing for a video to just be in portrait, but another for a video to be in portrait letterboxed to widescreen..

        What do you think about watching portrait video letterboxed to widescreen on smartphone held vertically?

  Yes. Obviously.
