Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Or just film in landscape and everyone wins.

Alright, you win, I'll never use my phone in portrait ever again, especially not to film my dog in a storm. I'll make sure I turn that baby right to your preferred orientation and I'll stop complaining about pointless bars at the side of other people's portrait content.

If you want, I can go back through my canara roll and delete everything that's in portrait just in case I'm ever tempted to sell it to a news organisation. I'll make sure to only ever post landscape content to whatsapp, signal and especially tiktok and instagram, because otherwise some relative, friend or random Internet user might share it in portrait.

You're right. That's definitely a better solution than not putting annoying fuzzy bars on portrait content.

Glad you've seen the light. Go in peace.

Someone note this moment in history. The war has finally been won
