Use the official final image of Reddit

Closed this issue ยท 9 comments

Reddit has now apparently published the official final image: https://twitter.com/Reddit/status/1511383937305751555

While it's probably up for debate whether the official image or the end result of r/thefinalclean should be used in the end, I think the official image is still an improvement over the current one.

Link to the raw image (Reddit banner still needs to be removed): https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FPmDrWhXMAAD6O-?format=png&name=orig

Edit

As noted in the replies, this was in fact not the final image, but the final image has now been posted:

Reddit post: https://www.reddit.com/r/place/comments/txvk2d/rplace_datasets_april_fools_2022/

Whether that or the result of r/thefinalclean is preferred is still debatable.

@Siphalor The image posted by Reddit on Twitter is actually not the most final image available (Louvre is missing, etc). Not only that, but ggAlex, Reddit staff, has said that Reddit will be posting a FINAL final image later today that is up to date to the very last placed colored pixel.

I suggest this be closed, and a new issue be opened when that image is posted.

The current place-indexed.png is 116 minutes before the end, based on the progress of the Bolivian flag dithering compared to snapshots on https://place.thatguyalex.com/.

@memmam So reddit did post the official final image, but it seems to be missing the bottom 5 rows of pixels.

At least the image you linked at the bottom has the correct resolution of 2k*2k and doesn't seem to be missing any rows in comparison to the current image as well.

I'm gonna edit the issue description to point out your comment ๐Ÿ‘

I forgot to mention that I made a post and ggAlex mentioned that they fixed it. If you do Ctrl + Shift + R it'll clear the cache and it should be updated: https://placedata.reddit.com/data/final_place.png

But I also think they already updated the Atlas with this image too.

Per discussion on the Discord between me and @nico-abram, it appears that Reddit's new 'final' image was taken after the whiteout started, and the last image from rplace.space is equally bad as it is missing some pixels placed on France. Efforts are underway to reconstruct the final image from the CSV dataset.

Just to make it clear, is it up to debate whether results of r/thefinalclean are going to be used?
There were a few last minute streamer attacks across the board (relatively small, but covering a lot of small arts) which didn't result in anything useful, just white and black voids

We will not be using r/thefinalclean as the default image, but it may be an option.
