    I honestly don’t get the hype around this. It was just one video—one single video—and the whole thing felt really repetitive and low effort. Every time I tried to interact or ask something, it was like the same canned reply over and over again. There was zero variety or depth. I was expecting more engaging content or at least some meaningful responses, but nope. It’s like they didn’t bother to put any real thought into it. Just one video, and then replying every time felt robotic and annoying, not natural at all. If you want genuine interaction or anything beyond a basic copy-paste job, this definitely isn’t it. Honestly, a waste of time and pretty disappointing overall. Would not recommend.
