I guess it’s either cheap to make background noise (instead of taking the effort to create an actual original video) or it’s kind of like mukbangs, where some people would watch them while eating themselves so as to feel less lonely.
Comment on What is with these videos where it's just someone reaction to shit someone else is doing?

I don’t understand those long ass unboxing videos either. If you wanna review a product and show us what all came with it. Have that shit all laid out on a table before you start the video.
It’s weird to make a 10 min video of slowly cutting tape and meticulously removing things from a shipping container.
Weird.

It’s just ASMR porn basically.

I know some are supposed to be weird edging kink porn. But so much is targeted at kids. So I think that’s also kinda Fked up.
