If they don’t have a good internet connection available for free for customers with a good mobile website, why would anyone visit and actually struggle through the ordering process?

Isn’t that a Windows 11 thing?

I use powertoys and have the mouse highlighting tool enable when I shake the cursor back and forth.

Before this tool I also moved it around so I could see it, now it becomes highlighted when I do.

I think someone will make an app that overrides the IMU measurements so the phone thinks it’s in landscape when it’s portrait, then use another app to rotate the video to be vertical.

I agree! I wonder if there’s already camera apps that do this?

In any case, unless it’s in the default camera app and a default option, it will likely do nothing to reduce the plague of vertical video. I would guess that most people filming something that would be better in landscape didn’t even think about it, so won’t think about turning an option on.

I realise sensors come in other aspect ratios, but I didn’t want to spend the time researching and listing them all. Some sensors are 4:3 (like the IMX363).

But that’s irrelevant to my point that the sensor is not square which means you lose more resolution cropping to 16:9 in one orientation (usually portrait) than the other.

Because the sensors are landscape 4:3 and you would lose resolution when doing so.

AFAIK there’s no other reason other than that and giving people the option might confuse people.

They all loaded for me, but cyberpunk had a loading icon for 20 seconds (I guess while it was getting that information from the server).
