This clip belongs to the family of exaggerated reaction sounds that spread through meme soundboards and short-form video, where a single vocal effect can carry an entire joke. The reverb version became popular because it sounds larger and more theatrical than a dry wah, making it easy to drop over fails, pranks and disappointed reactions without any dialogue. Creators reuse it because it is instantly recognisable as mock sadness, works in almost any language, and fits the quick punchline rhythm of reels and edits, which keeps it circulating long after individual trends fade.
