Distortion of City -Boundary-Polygons proportional to population size in QGIS?
Is there a way to distort the size of polygons proportional to their population size (as in column in the attribute table)? I want to create a map that looks similar to this:
the cartogram2 plugin works with small datasets, but trying to make the same for all regional units in Germany (around 400) QGIS crashed with this report:

You need the cartogram3 plugin - once installed simply select your layer and press the button.
You can then style it like any other layer.
