I think this is some (new?) social media trend, my school started doing it too with their images on facebook. Half the image is just a border so the actual image is really low res. I have no idea why they do it though.
- Hendrikto 1y agoSome social media sites and apps like to cut off the sides to fit content onto different screen sizes and aspect ratios. I think adding a border is an attempt to preserve the essential parts of the images in those situations. It really should not be necessary, but alas modern/stupid problems require modern/stupid solutions.
- al_borland 1y agoThis is a more generous explanation than my cynical first assumption, that they were trying to get away with saving lower res pictures to save on storage costs.
