This is something that I see a lot of people (especially Youtubers) do. But it applies to every social media platform, so I will not use a prefix for that. On social media, everyone’s fighting for attention—but copying what others do won’t make you stand out. Its the original ideas that will make people remember you and come back to your social media profile. When you bring something fresh to the table, you show personality, build real connection, and earn trust. I've seen this so many times on Youtube. People copy something, they may get some views, but that's it. Once the hype is over, the social media hype for them will also be over.

Here is a funny video that I've found yesterday:


It is a stupid idea but funny, entertaining, and, most importantly, unique. And it gets the views. So when you want to copy something, think about it. Think what you can do or implement that can make it even better than it already is. And then do it. Most of the times it won't work, but when it will work, you will most likely have big success. It's all about trying. Go for it.

The thing about video creators is that they can't think of anything new since almost everything is already out there.

Imagine how many "influencers" make funny, educational, or attention-seeking videos - and since the public expects new content daily or every other day, creators start copying or slightly tweaking original approaches because their creativity can't keep up with the demand.

You are right. But as you can see with the example above it is still possible. In no way it is easy although.
