I do not think there is a correct answer for your question.

I believe however, it is important to stick to common sizes.

I use:  rectangle: 3:2,  square: 1:1, and for panoramas: 3:1 and 16:9.

It depends on the picture. It also depends on the search criteria. I would guess, that in most cases, landscape mode is the best format, based on my work designing webpages, folders and other documents for customers.

I think there is no exact answer. It all depends on work or images. I am uploading 4:3 for images on adobe stock.

4:3 is classic. That's OK.

I always maintain the aspect ratio straight out of the camera.

For good old photos, yes, except for the slight cropping that can be applied occasionally. But if you create assets like illustrations and vectors, or generative art, you have the choice… and my feeling here (supported by my sales figures) is that 16:9 like assets probably sell best.

I usually go for 16:9, up to 7200 ppi on the long side, allowing ample room cropping either vertically or horizontally if the buyers sees fit.

PPI = pixels per inch? I suppose you wanted to write px like pixels.
