the log-log[1] "Posts vs Sats Stacked" [2nd row, left side] shows it beautifully
linked in case people like wikipedia; tl;dr, switching both scales of a graph from linear to logarithmic causes some kinds of data behavior to "jump out" because the log scales turn certain kinds of curves into lines of recognizeable angles ↩
I'm being facetious, cuz all the power-law log-log stuff is complete bullshit (#1433264).
Nice to find a Pareto distr in the SN wilderness
honestly I'm not well-versed in the detailed differences.
the line on the log-log chart, with meta outlying, is undeniable.

I agree that quibbling over whether some fitted curve is n^x, x^n, or something else, is futile in most situations... although a conversation in one situation could be complete bullshit, without reducing the abstract accuracy of the mathematics.
emphasis mine, on the word that pissed me off ... ↩
I thought Pareto distributions show up everywhere
Yahyah, a little bit
Oh look, it's a power law!!
