Why it worked
The video leverages a niche but relatable "developer humor" concept (using GitHub Pull Requests for non-coding requests) and combines it with universally understood themes of dating and rejection. The use of memes and a lighthearted tone makes a technical concept accessible and entertaining, driving engagement.
