Editing to let people know that I will be blocking anyone who feels the need to tell me why this graph is inaccurate. I truly don't care, but feel free to chime in with your useless take and land a spot on my block list! ๐Ÿ™‚

To be fair, the Y-Axis doesn't start from zero.

That being said, 10% account growth in 2 days is pretty solid. Let's hope both account creation and engagement metrics (MAUs/DAUs) keep growing.

EDIT: Correct Axis type.

Pedantic: You mean Y-axis, right? Technically, neither start at zero but I think you meant Y based on context.

Yes, of course the Y axis.

I work with charts/vizualizations/data a lot, but for whatever reason I reflexively mistake X/Y a lot. It's not even funny.

Y has a vertical part, just like its axis. X is the other one.

This is like a weird personal thing that I can't even explain. For whatever reason, the Y axis becomes labelled as X in my mind in random situations. And I use charts (and other data visualizations a lot).

The funny thing is when I am thinking of X, I don't have this urge to call it Y. If I am looking at horizontal, X is the first thing that comes to mind. But not with Y.
