      Ultrawide is extremely niche compare to vertical resolutions/aspect ratio. It’s not even close.

          Vertical Video Syndrome

          We were warned, but allowed it to become endemic.

            “Youtube will begin showing 4 videos at once”

            The average YouTube short:

            Edit: It’s called “Sludge content”: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sludge_content

            Which reminds me of a certain part from Back to the future too. I’ll try to search for it, but my DVD drive is currently occupied

            Edit 2:

            Part 2 at 30:27 (at least on PAL edition)

          I mean across all display devices, not just monitors.

          Dont get me wrong, while I don’t have an ultrawide, I’ve seen some of them in store and they look wonderful. It’s almost like being in the future.

          That being said, it’s clear that vertical resolutions/aspect ratios are far more widespread.

      Getting vertical video before modern codecs (AV1∨HEVC), and the same bitrate limitations since it was justin.tv.

      It’s impressive how stagnant Twitch is, and how expensive it’s purported to be.
