idk it’s my first time (kind of) trying to do dataviz, I thought the original post was super interesting but like other comments said, it was hard to read.
I think in a way it’s mostly because defederation is complex to show as links, since it is the break of said link, but hopefully this type of graph is better ?
you do lose the “group” of instances view, though (and also I did not bother with per instance MAU as raw number + percentage, or sofware used)
let me know what you think!
It’s a very clear visualization. I do agree that some indication of the scale/activity of the instances would be a nice addition.
I also think you should add a date, as the relationships and active servers will likely change over time. If you keep it up, eventually you’ll have a collection that illustrates the changes.
