10 years ago, a person would be insulted for filming a video in portrait instead of landscape. Now, old landscape videos are being cropped and resized to fit in a portrait player. (lemmy.world)

But people still don’t find diagonal eyes attractive, we will never mutate to having vertically-aligned eyes. Horizontal video supremacy is established by nature. Surgery goes a long way this days but, where would they put your nose?

Nose to the left, mouth to the right, of course.

I thought some more after writing the comment and maaaybe, pick an eye and just align the one they remove above it, like right in the forehead but to one side. It could fit. Worst case they just remove some frontal cortex so it doesn’t stick out too much, won’t be needing it anyway if all one’s gonna do is watch vertical videos!
