I wrote a spider many years back to download the comics and display them in a local interface. Somehow it survived several migrations and was on my synology.

Here is an archive of the images if anybody wants them.

RIP UF, you were a big part of my childhood
- mdaniel 5y agoThat sounds like something that would interest archive.org
- bdbz 5y agoI'll look into that. TBH I would be interested in migrating and hosting the website at my own expense.
- sgarland 5y agoMany thanks, I've got it on my NAS now. Fond memories of reading UF.
- thaumasiotes 5y agoUF also provided text transcripts which were searchable - did you get those too?
- bdbz 5y agoI was not aware that was a thing :( Maybe I can do something with OCR/ML
- snarkerson 5y agoI bought on of his books but it’s not the complete series.
- Jaruzel 5y agoTaken a copy - thank you! I'll probably throw up a mirror of the strips on my site at some point. For others, this archive is 1997 to 2013 and is images of the strip only. I stopped reading UF around that time I think. Like many things on the web, it's only really relatable to a person for a certain period of time, before you move on (XKCD was the same, used to regularly read it, now I hardly do.)
