Interesting thing about this pandemic is that it's placed tremendous visibility on the importance and nuances of proper data visualization. As a greenhorn in this area, the barrier-for-entry for designing proper visualizations is still too high. https://twitter.com/wgeary/status/1252636419111165953

I believe that the saturation of specific visualization types (line chart & choropleth) are directly related to their simplicity in implementing. Existing libraries are difficult to use, but even harder to understand some of these options @wgeary illustrates in this thread

Overall, it's clear we need better educational understanding of responsible data visualization (such as the attached thread). Perception and comprehension of *what data is telling us* can be tremendously misrepresented by the wrong visualization. #DataVisualization
