Unless there's some kind of key or explanation I'm missing then data is completely illegible

If you zoom in, the dots are labeled. But still hard to navigate.

Yeah, a lot of names which I assume are wine and/or cheese, but what is the point of the lines and map? What data is this conveying other than a big list of consumables?

[–] Hobart_the_GoKart@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, good point. Definitely not beautiful.

Data is data
