It feels jarring to pull up an XKCD from two decades ago and find zero comments—because, of course, the cartoonist never added a comments section. Or a forum, or an "official Discord", or anything at all like that. He's only ever published his comics three times a week, releasing a book now and again, and that's all. This "lonely" creative style isn't for everyone. But it very much appeals to my tastes, and I'm so happy he's made it work for so long. It's a quiet and burningly successful model.
