        I’m curious, why link the image instead of linking to the actual website?

        Although I realize as I type this that it probably shows as an embed on Lemmy - Kbin shows all images as links

          It’s an embed on Lemmy. I used XKCD’s embed link for that exact reason. And I used the embed syntax (which uses a bang in front of the link markdown)

          I want to look at the image, not the website. Linking the website just puts more shit in my way.
