- jacobolus 11y agoFor log scale charts aimed at the general public, the key is very clear labeling along the axis. I think most viewers can handle it okay; the bigger problem is that charting tools default to linear scale and most chart makers don’t think about it. It’s in some ways too bad that slide rules have been replaced by electronic calculators. I feel like the general public coming out of high school used to have more fluency with logarithms, which until the last generation or two were the basic tool for all calculation in science and engineering.
