Blockchain explorers are practical, but they lack, in my opinion, graphical representation.
~Snipped~
I'm currently using blockchain.info api,
Back in the day, it was a different story! Not sure why Blockchain.info
[or ".com"] removed that feature
[yours look almost the same: e.g. #1 and #2].
api limitations are annoying (use a vpn).
I did use a VPN but still had a somewhat similar experience to @NeuroticFish. The only difference was the "Unconfirmed tx" part kept refreshing or rather shuffling the transactions.
