xkcd - Spirit

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
Web of links
Weird - I'm seeing that now too. But I wasn't at the time that I copy and pasted the links, and you can see from the other replies around 8 hours ago that other people were also seeing a site hosting edited versions of xkcd comics. I guess it has suddenly changed, after years of being up, in the few hours after I posted it? I have no idea what happened there.
I can't believe it, missed it by a few hours.
How the fuck does this even happen - was the site hacked?
Super late, but I figured it out because it happened again in a more recent comment. Lemmy seems to automatically change the links to https instead of http, even when http was explicitly included in the url. Somehow, xkcdsw is a completely different site on https than on http. If you copy the link into an external browser and remove the s, the link works as intended. I can only assume this is a behavior of the lemmy app(s), which is why it didn't affect some users. Were you using jerboa?
