How do you get the hover text on mobile?

Some browsers show it when you long press the image. For the others, you can edit the URL to m.xkcd.com

If you long press on the image, the hover over text will appear.

Maybe try tapping on the text?

You can tap on the text to have it expand.

Here's the hover text for this one:

Learning arcane bullshit from the 80s can break your computer, but if you're willing to wade through arcane bullshit from programmers in the 90s and 2000s, you can break everyone else's computers, too.
