Wondering why these short ass quips have so much whitespace around them these days. Seems like a fad right now.
Makes it standard meme size I guess
That...is actually a good point. I have a feeling that if it were cropped and I was using the standard view of my Lemmy app that shows images as cards, it would be really stretched out and cropped at the sides to try to make it fit the standard margins.
Yeah I dislike it a lot, but I've noticed on several platforms that if you have a weird aspect ratio, it will crop the image preview on either the sides or the top and bottom and require clicking it. Sometimes I just want a screenshot to be a thin line of text from a convo, ya know?
The apps that don't handle this gracefully would have a look at their code and fix that, IMO. Shouldn't be hard math.
