@wallabra@bark.lgbt im mostly kidding, although he does post on bsky as "xkcd.com" and on his about page he says that for citation purposes, xkcd is a proper noun with no capital letters.
and, my usual advise for colorblind-friendliness is to run the site through a grayscale filter and make sure any important information is still readable. but I'll take a look at your website too!

@nycki@bark.lgbt @wallabra@bark.lgbt You may have been joking, but xkcd actually was originally his handle/pseudonym, and predates the comic! He chose it as four random letters that were unique and wasn't pronounceable as a word, used it as a handle, and registered the domain. When he eventually started using the domain to post comics, they took on his handle and it became primarily known as the name of the comic.

@nycki@bark.lgbt @wallabra@bark.lgbt ah but WHICH grayscale filter? There’s usually four variants so I guess “all of them”
