Last month I posted the progression of my COVID symptoms with a line chart, and received a lot of good feedback about how to improve the visualization. One of the suggestions was using a ridgeline plot – I think this looks much clearer than the original. Thanks to all the constructive commenters!
Source: I manually recorded daily symptom intensity data on a 0-4 subjective rating scale.
Tools: The data recording and visualization were performed with Reflect, a personal tracking app I'm developing.
