The scroll doesn't work for me in the mobile app, but it's not I'd want to view Tall Chart(TM) on my phone anyway

Anyways keep the Tall Charts coming, it's always useful to be able to show people visual representations of differences in amounts

A certain XKCD comic, and a visual metaphor with rice come to mind

In the app, try putting your thumb on the chart and scroll. Treat it like a scroll within the scroll. Hope that helps!

I think I understand the point you are trying to illustrate with tall charts: disparity in pay between the CEO and the median worker. The viz in me is screaming for basing both measures of salary over a constant, like sales in that fiscal year. Then, presenting percentage-to-sales ratios that require less scrolling.

It would be great to see an estimate of total employee salaries and wages expense for the company, so that comparisons could be made against the estimates of exec compensation. It would also be great to see percentage growth of employee salaries over time.

Seeing how much wages represent would give an idea of how much room within margins is available for raises. Seeing growth of employee salaries over time would suggest raises (or generally higher compensation packages) are being given.

Which, from what I can see... Net profit margins of 30% increasing to 35% from 2020 to today.

Seems like there's room for more wage growth!
