minus-squareMeekerThanBeaker@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·2 months agoAt first, I thought it was a typo and they meant “stream virtually” … but no. These young’ens don’t have time to rotate their phones 90 degrees.

minus-squareViking_Hippie@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·edit-22 months agoBig same. Probably wouldn’t watch if it was ONLY available in that awful format. It’s ok for short videos, but I’m not going to be holding my phone upright to watch for several hours…
