Short pop sounds like this one have become a staple of online editing because they are so easy to place and instantly understood. Creators use them in short-form video, livestreams and meme compilations to mark a change on screen without needing music or dialogue to do the work. Because the clip is under a fifth of a second, it fits neatly between words, beats and cuts, and it is often reused as a tiny transition or emphasis effect. Its simplicity is the reason it keeps appearing in new edits years after similar sounds first circulated.
