    Linking an xkcd image directly would strip out the hover text, which is part of the comic.

    P.S.
    You’re one of today’s lucky 10,000.

      How do you get the hover text on mobile?

        Some browsers show it when you long press the image. For the others, you can edit the URL to m.xkcd.com

        If you long press on the image, the hover over text will appear.

          It cuts off

          “Learning arcane bullshit from the 80s can break your computer, but if you’re willing to wade through…”

            Maybe try tapping on the text?

            I almost got it by switching to landscape, but still not quite.

              You can tap on the text to have it expand.

        Here’s the hover text for this one:

        Learning arcane bullshit from the 80s can break your computer, but if you’re willing to wade through arcane bullshit from programmers in the 90s and 2000s, you can break everyone else’s computers, too.

      is this common for xkcd? because then I’ve been missing a whole layer of all the comics I’ve stumbled upon.

        Oh boy, every xkcd (maybe except the first hundred?) has alt-text, time for you to read them all again!
