Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

People can’t be arsed to turn their phones sideways
Even disregarding the orientation, people hate auto-next on YouTube, but will tolerate/accept endless scroll for shorts, especially because they're short.
Maybe it's the low risk? If it's just a shitty short, you haven't lost four hours. There's got to be a piece of gold in there, somewhere.
When smartphones were still a new thing, I kept preaching to take videos sideways because all useful playback devices were sideways. Man, how that has changed...
