My most popular video is my worst one

So my most popular video on Youtube is literally one of my first ever videos and the worst in terms of lighting and setup as well.

Take a look: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hux5H7dt37Y

The only thing going for this video is the actual content. I was literally recording this with the inbuilt webcam of my mac - 720p, using my airpods as the mike and zero lighting.

So embarrassed to see it now, but even today it gets views daily and the engagement on it is really high (1:20 like to view ratio).

An example if you are waiting to get started for the perfect equipment .. you don't need it to start. It can evolve with time :)

    I think it is pretty decent given that it is your first yt video. Good job :)
