Know that feeling
There’s a description field, could people please start putting a link to the original xkcd, i.e. https://xkcd.com/979/ in this case? It’s not that hard.
Without attribution you’re just doing copyright infringement (see also https://xkcd.com/license.html). And you’re hiding useful and nice information like the title text, the title, an the xkcd number, which you can use to get a transcription and an explanation on explainxkcd.

This is my issue with redditors deleting all their content from reddit. I agree with leaving because of the policy changes, but I think that adopting a scorched earth policy, mostly harms other users.
On some level, protest is about harming other people, at least mildly. Protests are frustrating. Protests are interrupting. Protested make it more difficult for people to do what they want.
This is by design. This is part of the point.
Protests that aren’t inconveniencing people are protests that can be safely ignored.
It’s all the better, though, when those inconveniences can be paired with a clear alternative for people to turn to to have their needs met.
Don’t worry, once discord succeeds in killing every forum ever, you won’t be able to find anything like this again!
Discord is a poor replacement for forums. It’s like hearing every conversation in a nightclub all at once. IRC, ICQ, MSN Messenger, and AOL Chat never killed forums, and I doubt Discord will either.
Nvm, fixed it.
“Ah ok, thanks! That helped so much.” Reply made by deleted user. Fml.
The worst is when you see a post below it that’s like “2022 and this still isn’t solved, anybody have a fix for this yet?!?”

Wow thanks, this fixed the issue perfectly, and it was so easy for a beginner like me!
Fucking drives me nuts.
There’s going to be lots of those on Reddit with so many people deleting their past posts/comments.
