In Episode 021 of Logging In, everything changes.

Techie and Kali break down a major shift happening right now across the internet—where views, watch time, and clicks are no longer the only thing that matters. Instead, platforms like YouTube are quietly moving toward something much bigger: how content makes you feel.

From MrBeast’s surprising drop in views to the rise of short-form dominance, they explore how the algorithm is evolving—and what that means for creators, audiences, and the future of content.

They also dive into:

• Why YouTube is pushing emotional feedback over retention
• The explosion of shorts vs long-form content
• Restaurants going phone-free to bring back real connection
• Viral creators influencing brands in real time
• A quiet but major shift in the U.S. draft system
• How everyday people are becoming internet-famous—and impactful

The big question:

Are we entering an era where emotion is the new currency of the internet?

This episode connects tech, culture, and human behavior in a way that shows one thing clearly—

the algorithm isn’t just watching what you do anymore… it’s learning how you feel.
