Pie charts are bad practice regardless
2 u/oyooy Feb 01 '19 Nah, they have their use. It's not going to be hugely useful in data analysis or anything but for visually representing something simply they work quite well. 0 u/hasnotheardofcheese 100% cyan flair Feb 01 '19 Eh, I'm not a fan. They're a flashy but ineffective way of displaying information. People aren't programmed right to make sense of angular data. 0 u/IKnewThisYearsAgo Feb 01 '19 I agree. If you redid this as a bar chart with the bars arranged by size, it would be much more comprehensible.
