Ngl, you have me curious how much work it took to make that screenshot.

  1. Go to this website or one of its clones: https://thetruesize.com/ If you search for "true size map" there a lot of similar websites
  2. Eyeball the countries
  3. Screenshot
  4. Post

It's like 5 minutes max, with some practice I think you can lower that to less than half minutes.

Or, as it's from reddit, I suspect its a repost bot, so just find the last time it was posted

Recreated something similar now:

Ohhh, it was easy. I thought it was going to be a long story. I was ready to get comfy!

I was sarcastic, nowadays you can rarely find interesting maps on r/mapporn, mostly similar very low effort posts and reposts.

Whoop. I missed that, sorry.
