why doesn't any site stack long thin images instead of putting them side by side? Cohost at least doesn't crop them (as long as they're the same dimensions) but posting images of things like tweets is common and the default design makes them unreadable?

in reply to @bcj's post:

Tumblr does, or at least it can. In the mobile app, uploading images one after another will stack them vertically, whereas selecting multiple before adding them to the post puts them side by side cohost style. It's trivial to rearrange them however you want though.

I've wondered that too. Pillowfort does it differently but not because it defaults to putting them one above the other, it just hasn't really got a default because the upload interface is also a positioning interface so you choose where you want the second image to go before you upload it (and then you can move them around once they're both uploaded).
