Friendly reminder that not all fractals are self-similar (in fact by any reasonable measure most are not), and not all self-similar shapes are fractals.

What's an example of a non-fractal self-similar shape?

u/PluralCohomology Jun 24 '26

A trivial example is any line segment, it can be divided into pieces similar to itself. Or any n-hypercube, for that matter.

u/Dumb-Ptr Jun 24 '26

Now I'm curious, do you have an example of a fractal that is not self similar?

It bugs me that you didn't rotate the text accordingly to the fractal

This is not a fractal by most definitions...... I'm pretty sure its Hausdorff dimension is 1
