Data is beautiful—and I’m in love. I swear it’s not just because of its gorgeous pie charts, voluptuous curves, and stunning axes... Promise! When it comes to showing off just how stunningly data can be presented, there’s no better to place to feast your eyes than the ‘Data is Beautiful’ subreddit that hosts a massive community of over 15.6 million people and which celebrated its 9th birthday in February.

The community is full of math, statistics, and art lovers, as well as professionals who use data every day. Often, they get so inspired by the eye-pleasing charts and graphs, they create their own and end up on the front page of Reddit.

We’ve collected some of the most aesthetic expressions of data found on r/DataIsBeautiful for you to enjoy, so scroll on down and have a peek, dear Pandas. As you dive deep into the world of stats, upvote the images that you liked the most. Remember, the charts love it when the numbers go up. (Pssst, the subreddit even has its own Twitter page and Discord server.)

I had a lovely chat with some of the moderators running the ‘Data is Beautiful’ community, including redditors NotABotStill and PHealthy. So be sure to read on for the in-depth insights they shared with Bored Panda about the ins and outs of how the small team of professionals manages the massive community of content creators. They’re a very friendly bunch, so you shouldn’t hesitate to join the community if you’re into charts, graphs, maps, or, well… simply love looking at pretty pictures.

Despite having millions and millions of members, the subreddit still maintains some of the core tenets that they had when it was still founded. The moderator team is purposefully left as a small group of professionals who focus on data visualization as some part of their careers and lives. That passion for data translates into passion for the r/DataIsBeautiful community.

What’s more, the subreddit treats its original content creators as “first-class citizens,” constantly engaging them, and making sure they’re credited and acknowledged for their work (as all creators should be!). 

“We bring a data-centric view of the world to millions of people every day—from important information about the COVID-19 pandemic all the way to a random dude's daily bowel movements—and our community prides itself in that fact. For example, we had community members posting analyses and projections of COVID-19 trends back in January and February 2020—well before anyone in the U.S. was taking the pandemic seriously. /r/DataIsBeautiful is THE place to go when you want to see the signal through the noise of hectic daily life,” one of the moderators explained why the community is so loved and popular.

The amount of posts and comments that the mods of r/DataIsBeautiful have to deal with is absolutely staggering. I’m not exaggerating when I say that my jaw dropped when I heard about it. The subreddit gets roughly 400-500 submissions each week and has had 2,370 approvals, removals, and spam posts over the last month alone.

Meanwhile, the number of comments they get is beyond counting, but the mods estimate that the number ranges in the tens of thousands and might even be as high as over a hundred thousand.

Redditor NotABotStill has been a moderator at r/DataIsBeautiful for two years and revealed to Bored Panda that the mod team is global, with members living in the EU, US, and APAC, so that they can cover all the time zones.

The level of professionalism that they have is pleasantly surprising. However, that makes sense once you realize that they’re actually all professionals in their personal lives and are a very close-knit group who regularly communicate. You can expect this level of dedication from people running a successful company.

“We certainly refine the rules over time. For example, we no longer allow YouTube videos as it was being abused by content creators looking for subs on their channel. We also occasionally temporarily prohibit specific subjects, like Tinder or dating posts, when a topic overwhelms the subreddit although dating posts are allowed again,” moderator NotABotStill explained.

“We also only allow personal posts (posts about the poster such as miles jogged over a year as an example) on Mondays which I believe we instituted during my tenure. That's just a flavor of the types of rules we add, adjust, or remove over time. Rule changes are done by consensus of the mods and we will often spend days or weeks deciding on new rules and how to word them,” they said that they’re always moving towards perfection, with a lot of time spent on making the subreddit better and better.

The moderators manually approve or remove each and every post, but they mostly rely on their fellow redditors to report posts and comments that violate their rules of conduct. They also use AutoMod to help move the process along. Posts that go against the rules end up being automatically removed, so the mods can spend more time on important issues rather than chores.

I think the correlation is more about greater exposure to more progressive thought, diversity, and macro / global worldview through the experience of attending colleges and universities that result in graduates tending to lean towards progressive and liberal political views. Intelligence has nothing to do with education, but education has everything to do with combating ignorance and myopic thinking.

Obligatory "I didn't vote for Trump in either election, but I'm a centrist so I'm going to address your post" Is this a comment about class? Are we implying that having a college degree is a measure of intelligence or worth? Perhaps we should establish that

I wouldn't say that, personally. I know plenty of people who are smart without having gone through higher education, and also people with a college degree who lack critical thinking skills. It's often more a question of personal priorities. One example: mining is simply on its way out, which is bad news for miners. Republicans promised to help them, so that's who they vote for. Doesn't mean they're stupid, just that they're scared. Another example: Crippling student debt is a big deal for many with a college degree, Democrats promised to help them, so that's who they vote for. Doesn't mean they're smart, just scared. There are of course many, many, many more factors.

One of the main purposes of universities is to teach critical thinking and to support claims with evidence and facts, instead of 'common sense' and feelings. But then I'm in STEM, not the soft sciences, where feelings are valid and you don't have to be objective.

Poorer less educated people make up the majority of most countries, and this case most were mislead by Trumps into believing their countries problems were everybody else's fault and that he would fix those problems making things better for them. He also used catchy chants and straight talk with the knowledge that it would get their vote because other politicians like to make themselves look smarter by using polysyllabic words which distances them from the average person who either doesn't understand them or feels like they're being condescending to them.

College degree isn't necessarily indicative of intelligence. People with degrees are more likely to live in cities, and people in cities are more likely to have degrees. And no, I didn't vote for Trump. But correlation doesn't mean much here.

This actually makes a lot of sense. Most people equate education with intelligence, however that's not actually the case, getting a degree doesn't make you more intelligent. So the idea that many people get when they see this graph (that people with higher intelligence vote for Biden) is really not proven with this graph. What I believe is happening is that most colleges are very liberal, being influenced by the Sorbonne and Frankfurt school of thought. The Democratic party's current agenda follows closely these Leftist teachings taught in these schools. Therefore the educational system is creating more people with those political leanings and therefore changing the political fabric of society. Or simply put propagated bias.

I don't think this is about being smart or not. But it does seem to make sense in the sense that Trump relies on a lot of claims that are just not true about the rest of the world. The less you know about the rest of the world, the easier it is to believe his claims.

If your undergraduate degree was in Psychology, Communication, Sociology, Visual or Performing Arts, Women's Studies or Foreign Literature, you are so absurdly privileged that opening your mouth about socioeconomic issues is like a jock talking about what women should wear. This doesn't mean you're a bad person, just a clueless one whose opinion doesn't matter one one-thousandth as much as you think it does. Also, if you haven't taken Calculus and Statistics, don't pretend your advanced degree represents anything other than a high degree of indoctrination into groupthink. And whatever social science you think you studied wasn't a science anymore than a theology course at a baptist college.

This doesn't really mean anything. Again this is an American falsehood about what makes someone a good person. I know cleaners with degrees, and professionals without. A degree just means you studied a subject of your choosing to a higher than average level on paper. A degree does not affect your personal opinions, thoughts or feelings about things. I have a doctorate, that does not mean my political opinions are more right than yours.

what trump was trying to do was not a political "opinion", it was trying to rid human beings of human rights. if he was re-elected this year, LGBTQ rights would go down the drain, our relationships with many other countries would be nothing short of strained, and america would be DEAD. second term trump would have been much worse than first term trump because he would realize that the majority still supports his stupid lies.

“Most posts are visible immediately, however, we also utilize AutoMod to ‘filter’ out posts that likely violate a rule. Speaking of AutoMod, we heavily rely on it to filter, or make invisible, both posts and comments based on keywords, user karma, and URL links (to name a few) which then have to be manually approved before they are visible. We also utilize it to automatically remove posts that violate our rules (e.g., YouTube links or directly linking an image and not claiming [OC]) so we mods don't even have to see them.”

NotABotStill pointed out to us that popular posts on the subreddit “are often approved multiple times” because they’re reported while some posters end up reposting the images because the AutoMod catches the [OC] error. That means that the number of original monthly posts is probably closer to 1,500 to 2,000, once you do away with the reposts and multiple approvals.

Meanwhile, moderator PHealthy highlighted that the subreddit has had “fairly linear growth” since being founded in 2012. The growth started to slow down in 2017 and 2018, however, the sub is still adding thousands of new members each day. “That said, with the way Reddit works the subscriber count isn't all that important above a certain point which is enough to it r/all and/or the front page. That hits on a topic most of the more serious subreddits face: good content vs popular content.”

PHealthy said that moderating the community is a team effort. However, some mods go “above and beyond and really keep the community moving” where the automated mod tools end up not being enough. “I moderate a few other large communities so I split a lot of my time and try to help with the modqueue as much as I can but really only go after the real egregious offenses like hate speech, racism, personal attacks, etc.”

The moderators of ‘Data is Beautiful’ also went in-depth around what kind of content they consider to be good, what visualizations are popular, and what falls into both categories (if this were a Venn diagram, the latter would be the part where the two circles intersect).

Here are two examples of top posts in the last month that “look good and engage the audience to change over time on a popular subject” right here and here. Meanwhile, images like this one and this one might be popular because of the subject matter and what Redditors prefer, however, they’re “awful” and “difficult to read.”

Finally, here’s an example of great data visualization that, unfortunately, doesn’t do great because the subject matter doesn’t appeal to the audience or it’s too technical.

The ‘Data is Beautiful’ subreddit is about finding the perfect blend of beauty and brains. Or about the best way to present any particular dataset if you look at things from a different perspective. The subreddit is here to share and discuss all the various visual representations of data. From graphs and charts to, yes, even maps!

Another moderator who’s had 7 years of experience working with r/DataIsBeautiful explained that “back in the early days,” they were a niche community focused on attracting data visualization researchers and professionals. With the occasional enthusiast dropping by, too, of course! Eventually, with the growth of the community thanks in large part to a cordial relationship with the Reddit administrators, the subreddit grew to encompass a much broader range of members.

I get the logic behind "never wrong" and "always wrong", but what's the possible explanation for "sometimes wrong"? Like Wednesdays and Fridays?

“Most of our discussions back then focused on critiques and improvements of the data visualizations themselves, a focus that still sits at the core of the community to this day,” the moderator shared what the start of the community was like.

“In February 2012, the Reddit admins and DIB mods agreed to make /r/DataIsBeautiful a default subreddit. That meant that every new Reddit user would automatically be subscribed to DIB and our top content would consistently show up on the Reddit front page. After that point, our community grew extremely fast and continued growing even when the default subreddits were abolished in mid-2017,” they shared one of the reasons why the sub grew as fast and as big as it did.

It really isn’t just about the pretty pictures, however. Anyone who wants to dig a little deeper and learn a bit more about how to visualize data well can do so. “We provide a handful of guides for folks just learning to create data visualizations, and we require every original content post to include at least a brief description of the data source and how the data visualization was created so folks can learn from that. DIB is a great place to learn the craft of data visualization by doing,” the moderator shared with Bored Panda.

This seems like a very nice graph, but I'm intrigued as to how this data was collected, or what data was sued. Maybe they used percentages of these populations and then extrapolated that data?

“DataIsBeautiful is for visualizations that effectively convey information. Aesthetics are an important part of information visualization, but pretty pictures are not the sole aim of this subreddit,” the subreddit explains what it’s all about.

Now, pretty graphs might not be the entire story, but they can sure help express data in a way that grabs (and holds!) your attention, so you can understand the data better. Something that’s clear and stunning will help you remember it better. And if you understand something well, you can then use that data in arguments and (socially distanced) dinner parties.

As a whole, the community very much appreciates originality and creativity. They encourage people to post their own original content (it’s got that little OC sign next to in case you want to see what’s what). If there’s a graph that you love in particular, send the creator a warm ‘thank you’ to encourage them to keep on creating data eye-candy. And if you end up sharing it somewhere, be sure to credit it properly. It’s original content, after all!

So, dear Pandas, which chart or graph did you enjoy the most? Do you think that good data will always speak for itself or do we have to give it a gentle nudge to make it more palatable for our eyes and minds? Do you draw maps in your spare time just like I do? And, we’ve got to ask—do you prefer pie charts or bar graphs, dear Readers? Leave us a comment below!

Cool graph. But air in chips bags is necessary - it prevents the chips from cracking. I believe that's why the percentage is so high in Cheetos which as a corn puffs are more delicate than potato chips and so low in Pringles where chips lay on top of each other.

Actually, while being in my twenties, I am mostly attracted to men around 40. It seems all of his girlfriends started relationships with him out of their own free will. As long as both sides are okay with this (and they apparently were), who am I to criticize?

Another thing to bear in mind is that Obama usually golfed at military installations hear DC. Since presidents need a large security team, that was much less expensive to the government than flying them to private golf resorts. Not to mention the fact that Trump often flew to his own golf resorts making the government pay his companies to accommodate his entourage.

This is what's known as the "loudness war". When mastering a recording, dynamic range compression is maximized to produce the loudest possible sound. It became rampant in the 90's. It usually results in LESS dynamic recordings.

They didn't have a method of tracking the deaths due to the Spanish flu. The figure they give is an estimate based on the increase in reported deaths compared to previous years.

I got married in 2017, and my wedding cost under $5,000, including the costs of flying out my parents. Don't believe the hype that you need to spend like this to enjoy the day.

So what you're saying is that's 170,000 deaths. 170,000 families devastated in mourning, 170,000 best friends now struggling with grief. Tens of thousands of parents who've lost their children, or children who've lost their parents or grandparents, or spouses/significant others who've lost the loves of their lives. Actually, when you consider how many people just one individual is important to, HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of people who are now mourning. Hurting. And it could be prevented, we could STOP it and SAVE people if we look at it THAT way and take it SERIOUSLY and have empathy. Please.
