That’s one kind of reaction videos, or like one thing you can get out of react content, but for me when I indulge in it (rarely) it’s because it’s “X-persona reacts to thing from Y-culture”. Mostly I’m amused by Americans watching European things and getting their minds blown. Sometimes it’s also because the person reacting is an expert in the topic and provides helpful additional context, for example with fitness stuff it’s nice to get a medical opinion about it, etc.
With all that said, you do have to avoid mountains and mountains of garbage content that’s only made because it’s an easy grift to find the ones worth watching.
