Probably the worst (definitely the longest) chart I've ever made. But it was fun!

@ryanrandall Thank you! Yes, someone just reported this, so while I'm investigating, here's a static version: https://stefanbohacek.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/fediverse-activity-report-1-screenshot.png

@stefan okay-- I see this on my laptop now. neat-- but on my dark/iphone , only the text labels are visible
-
@atthenius Thank you for the update!
I hope the chart makes enough sense.
Either way, this seems to be a general issue with iOS, still looking into it.
-
@atthenius It looks like switching the chart library to use an SVG renderer did the trick, if you want to give this another try!
-
@ryanrandall Should be fixed now!
-
@stefan it works!
-
@atthenius Great, thank you for confirming!
Does the chart also make sense?
-
@stefan Indeed it is! Thank you for letting me know!
-
@ryanrandall Thank you for confirming! Hope the chart makes enough sense!

It does make sense, but pretty different presentation. I'm not clear on \ sort order
If I were making this plot:
Two panel figure. Top w the fraction (y-axis) of accts continuing to post X days (x-axis) after creation; bottom bar chart where height (y-axis) is the number of accounts that have been around (x-axis) days.
Or, alternatively, upper x-axis time & y-axis stacked bar chart of your categories (posted today, week, month, year); lower number of accts (y) and time (x)
-
@atthenius That makes sense! Let me give this a bit more thought.
And to answer your question, the sorting is just based on when each account last posted.
I think it would look better if within each group the accounts were also independently sorted, perhaps by when they were created, that would flow much better. Let me see if that's something that can be done.
-
Alright, now the accounts are sorted by the date they last posted *and* the date of creation.
Definitely looks nicer, and it's easier to spot patterns!
