I don’t understand why this is a thing? Who wants to watch someone nod their head to someone else’s content?

Just show the original video! How did this get popular and what is wrong with those that helped it to happen?

    Probably the most solid reason I’ve read so far. A few others have said similar.

      Another reason could be that it makes the act of watching a video feel less lonely than it actually is. Reaction videos turn it into a quasi-social thing.
