Twitter and vertical videos created a world where the information is being severely handicapped. You struggle to make sense of whatever people talk about or report on.

Or vertical videos showcasing important events, scanning horizontally to hopefully grab the entire scenery. All handicapped. All without a reason.
It feels like the world went backwards even in this regards.

A normal video would showcase the entire damage quite easily, giving you a better idea of what has happened.
Here's another example of a dude trying to perhaps explain some interesting things about the situation in Ukraine

In a gazillion of little Twitter posts....while this could have easily be done in a simple article.
