I'd love to hear your long list of reasons why. This is coming from someone who has heard of Tik Tok but has never used it. I'm a late adopter to social platforms, joining Twitter in 2014 and not really using it until last year.

yep the upper fence for the vertical scale is derived from the vote totals statistics. If the set of vote totals is now in votes per square mile, then there would likely be a different upper fence. Might be worth the number crunching to fig
