Widget Visual:
Overview:
This widget shows how different activities change over time. For instance, if there's a big jump in Reactions but not many new Posts or Comments, it could mean that a specific post has become very popular or is being shared a lot outside the platform. Similarly, if there's a sudden increase in Mentions, it might mean that people are having a lively chat or debate on a specific day.
