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?

    Not always. I’ve seen clips of reaction videos where people are shown older media that’s typically unfamiliar to young people. In that case, it’s a way to reassure older people of the continued appeal of the pop culture of their youth. Something like a modern high schooler listening to Led Zeppelin for the first time.
