Projection is distorted with later versions

[CodyJohnsonCHE]

Contextily is not correctly projecting my data and basemap when plotting on a basic matplotlib axes. This was not a problem previously (when I was using version 1.3.0).

I updated contextily when I received a new laptop and was setting up our inhouse toolbox. I don't recall what this version was, but I confirmed that the issue is occurring with 1.6.2 and if I downgraded to 1.3.0 then the projection looks correct.

Sorry, I don't have more details. Perhaps there is something simple that I'm missing because I haven't seen this issue mentioned before.

Can you provide a reproducible example?

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import contextily as ctx

x = [877035, 878175]
y = [3221850, 3223350]

fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax.plot(x, y, ls="--", color="k")
ctx.add_basemap(ax, source=ctx.providers.Esri.WorldImagery, crs="EPSG:26914")
