Every image on the page is broken for me (Chrome if it matters). I was hoping they would help understand what I was reading. Console is full of errors for where each image tried to load.

Do you use Privacy Badger or another blocker?

The markup loads images from seemingly local URLs:

  http://data.simonschreibt.de/gat055/intro_comic.png

but redirects to images stored at SSL-ACCOUNT.COM:

  https://ssl-account.com/data.simonschreibt.de/gat055/intro_comic.png

I reset Privacy Badger, and the assets loaded fine.

It seems that my site has problems when it's visited for example from behind a firewall which doesn't like my SSL-Proxy. I've heard that sometimes from people visiting the blog from work but at gome everything was fine...

Are you behind a firewall?

When I tried it in IE I got loads of popups about SSL/certificate stuff that I just don't get. So it probably is work messing it up. I will hopefully get a chance when I get home to revisit the page.

To the others, I did disable ublock and ghostery but that didn't do anything for me.

The page uses webp and webm. Don't know why your Chrome doesn't support that. Someone over in Reddit mentioned the same thing for an old version of Chromium.
