I literally used the embed link from XKCD's website
That's just for embedding the image, not citing. If it's not clickable by the end user, then an embed link is not a source, merely a delivery method.
That's a problem with your client, not the link
Perhaps. Regardless, if it's a limitation that most people's clients face, then it is not a reliable method of attribution. Either way, most people just put the source in the title or comment. It's more reliable. Β―\_ (γ) _/Β―
I have no way of seeing that on my client. Do you see that information on your's?
Not directly on the rendered comment, but if you view markdown for my comment you can see the link to the source.
No such option sadly.
Edit: select text does it.
