I don’t find the data nor the visualization beautiful. It’s just an “interesting” topical post that’s mediocre at best. The same kind of posts kept making it to the top of r/dataisbeautiful. IMO from observing the same thing happen on reddit, these kinds of posts will hurt this community by lowering the standards in both data and visualization.

I do think that there should be other communities that these kinds of post should be allowed in. At least until they are critiqued for being misleading, poorly sourced, or just too low quality.
