For those unaware, Super Mario Maker for the Wii U disabled uploading levels in March of 2021, and is shutting down its servers entirely in April of this year. I don't know if there's a good estimate on how many levels have been created in SMM's lifetime, but in 2016 Nintendo reported about 7.5 million levels created by players, so the number is High.
In the meantime there is a community dedicated to taking every level that has yet to be cleared for the first time, and clearing it. Some of these levels take 6-10 hours of attempts to beat, and some of them use obscure glitches that no one else has discovered. Nevertheless, as of a few months ago there were less than 20,000 uncleared levels and currently there are less than 1,000.
Nothing remains but the most difficult platform experiences you can imagine. The community is confident they can "beat Super Mario Maker" but the deadline is fast approaching. It will be a tight race, and this is shaping up to be a potentially historic moment.
As of yesterday, all levels uploaded in 2016 have been cleared.

"Every ? Block in the series is a transformed Toad" is a common misconception about the Mario franchise. In actuality, every ? Block is really a disguised Costume Mario, from Super Mario Maker.

Congratulations to the huge team who made sure every single Mario Maker 1 level was beaten before they go offline next month! It was very poetic that the last (legitimate) level beaten was called “the last dance”.

There is currently speculation that Trimming The Herbs, the final uncleared Mario Maker level, was uploaded by cheating (like through TAS or a hack or something) instead of being cleared legitimately by the creator. They don't have any evidence including any means through which the player could have cheated, so currently the strongest argument in this case is just that, given how difficult the level is, cheating is simply the most reasonable explanation for it having been clear-checked.

The sheer popularity of Auto-Mario levels in Super Mario Maker is further proof that people would rather watch a video game than play one.
