Those pie charts are really hard to read. Those colors are too similar.
Show threadfingolasFeb 26

There are numbers, too.

But I’ll look into it. I’m using DataWrapper and it’s not very customizable.

My guess is that these out of the box colors are probably fine with 3 or 4 things. But with a lot of items, you’re really forced to rely on the key.
Show threadfingolasFeb 26
Yes, you’re right. I changed tha graph for instances and will look into the others. But not today 😴

For a second it had me thinking Im color blind
Show threadBigFigFeb 26
You don’t like 4 shades of blue?
Show threadGhostalmediaFeb 26
More like 20

Need an eyedropper tool to figure out which color represents each country
Show threadfingolasFeb 26
With a mouse, you can hover over it and it will highlight the corresponding part.
Show threadglimseFeb 26
No mouse on phone :( why not use the full spectrum of colors? There’s like a 1 shade difference between each one
Show threadfingolasFeb 26
That’s the standard in DataWrapper. From my experience they surely have a blogpost on why this is the only right way to do it. 😉

That’s so weird, It’s great info but so hard to parse!
Show threadfingolasFeb 26
I found their explanation and as I suspected, they don’t want to distract you. 😉 www.datawrapper.de/blog/pie-charts But they’re also saying, that this is not the right chart for so many values. So I’ll retry.

Simple do's and dont's for pie charts.

Datawrapper

Doesn’t seem to work on firefox Android
Show threadfingolasFeb 26
It takes a couple of seconds to load the data.
Show threadByteMeFeb 26
Oh, sorry
Show threadchickenFeb 27
I also noticed that, maybe it would help to add some kind of loading progress indicator?
Show threadfingolasFeb 27
Yeah, I’ll try

I am relatively new to the fediverse.

What is the verification process?

Show threadfingolasFeb 26
They’ll basically have to have a link to the account in their website.
