You make this too hard to read. Constant scrolling for tiny little chunks of text. Sorry, ain't putting up with that.

I was thinking the same thing, another news story(?) set out as a video game. Does anyone have a link to a just-the-facts version, because this one is a tl;dp (too long, didn't play). Also, we get dinged for playing video games during work time.

This is the type of slop that looks okay to amateurs but if you had a professional they could have tweaked this into a well made data visualization (like one you'd find on pudding.cool) rather than a slopified powerpoint presentation.

Any specific recommendations? I’m always looking to improve.

Specific recommendations:

1) None of the animations are useful. None of the scroll gates are useful. They all get in the way. Remove them. All of them.

2) Don't make a person scroll so goddamned much. It's maddening and unnecessary.

3) Have a persistent table of contents on the side if your section headers actually matter.

4) Don't ignore Web Content Accessibility Guidelines for content readability. Your tiny low contrast text hurts my eyes.

5) Don't ignore user preference for dark text on light background.

So funny to me how you wasted time giving all this feedback but OP is just going to feed it into Claude and not actually read anything you said. Don't reward people that don't care about what they're building with effort, it makes the world a worse place.

You're probably right, and yet here I am.

Thank you

Honestly in regards to data visualizations just look at others and copy them. For inspiration I heavily go to these two sites:

https://pudding.cool/

https://www.datasketch.es/

One of the people behind data sketches recently came out with a good book on how to think regarding data vizs (and making them unique):

Halfway through the book myself, lotta good techniques on how to think about visualizing data sets. Found it way more accessible than many of the more academic books.
