I used my old Netflix_Plots project and created a userfriendly dashboard for my friends any myself. Below you can find the link to the "original" project (a terminalapp wich created the plots you see in the dashboard and saveed them to a folder)

Netflix_History_Dashboard

Description of the Project

I used the linked project I did a few months ago to learn how to create a shiny dashboard.

Sharing the tool with friends

If you want to share a shinyproject online with friends who don't have R installed, you need access to a server where R is installed. I found this website the most useful to achieve this goal. For this project the free version of shinyapps.io is very useful.

Interpretation of Example

The Plots reveal not only interesting but quite useful information about my netflix-viewing behaviour. For example the timelineplot suggests that I tend to bingewatch. Compared to my friends, long periods without activity are followed by single days with very high activity.

The plot of the months shows that I watch Netflix almost only in August, September and October and that for about 3 years (see calendar heatmap). So I could save a lot of money if I subscribed to Netflix only in those 3 months and I wouldn't even really notice. I explain the heavy usage of netflix in thoe months with the lecture-free period after the summersemesters.

I blame the heavy Netflix usage on a Monday on the following: I had no events on Monday for 2 semesters and a lot the rest of the week. On that day, however, all my friends are busy, which creates a situation that favors Netflix usage.

Overall, a peak during 2020 as the "year of the pandemic" and a general decline since then in my Netflix activity can be observed.
