Hey folks -- we're making a big investment in improving our video UX. That said, would encourage folks to start posting videos in 9:16 aspect ratio (like TikTok, IG Reels, YT Shorts). Would also encourage people to add captions -- using CapCut, Captions (app), Descript, Kapwing, etc.

I'm glad you're putting work into video, but I'll create my videos in whatever aspect ratio I damn well please.

Does that mean other aspect ratios will be less likely to be seen in people's feeds? That would kind of suck for a lot of artists.

They will be in the normal text feed. But the video feed will be optimized for vertical video on mobile (where most usage is). We're optimizing for more users / audience, which benefits everyone.
