Why it worked

The video taps into a popular trend ('second brain' apps) and offers a contrarian viewpoint, questioning the necessity of a hyped product. This creates intrigue and encourages engagement from both users of Obsidian and those considering it.

Summary

The creator reviews Obsidian, a popular note-taking app for building a 'second brain'. While acknowledging its aesthetic appeal and linking capabilities, they argue it's unnecessary as it primarily displays existing folder structures, suggesting viewers might already have what they need on their laptops.
