Why it worked
The video taps into a shared frustration within a niche community (speedcubers) by humorously ranking algorithms they dislike. The relatable content and engaging format likely resonated with viewers, encouraging interaction and shares.
Summary
The video ranks different last layer algorithms (PLLs) used in speedcubing based on how much cubers hate them. It humorously categorizes algorithms from 'loved' to 'pure evil,' highlighting the T-perm as loved and G-perms as pure evil due to their complexity and difficulty.
