pre-Vine, posting a vertical video was considered a major faux pas! People would yell at you in the comments! Turn the phone!

The thing that really irks me is the explosion of short-form video is paired with deemphasizing links to try and keep people from leaving the site, which means even if you want to just ignore the video content and still use social media as a way to find interesting things to read/look at on the internet it's becoming progressively more difficult.
