I know that people extrapolate this experience to other things they think they dislike about vertical videos, but satisfaction improves with the player itself working well
The ubiquitous mobile device audience is fine too, as the video fits their screens just like the device it was recorded on. With the exception of youtube.
My favorite is when I'm on my phone, and I run across a vertical video with horizontal black bars padding it out to 16x9 plus user-hostile configuration to make it impossible to resize in any way. I end up having to watch a postage stamp-sized version of the video
The weakest argument regarding this topic
> if you shoot a vertical video of a car accident you almost certainly get a great picture of the 3rd floor of a nearby building but chances are that you miss completely a vehicle or pedestrian on the left or right that could have triggered the accident
Zoom out, create a composition, pan. Same as with a 1:1 aspect ratio or a 16:9 horizontal aspect ratio.
So it's possible, but don't know how easy it is for the uploader.
