    I posted this through Jerboa and filled out the alt text field accordingly.

    Could you give me some feedback on it, is it visible for you? I could only see the alt text through a long press on the image in the web client…

    EDIT: ofc simply adding it to the post body as well is a solution, but ATM I’m interested in the “integrated” alt text field and how visible that is for others

      I’m using Voyager, and I can’t see any alt text. Long pressing does nothing, and obviously I can’t hover on mobile.

        Tap on the picture, you’ll see it on the bottom. Tap on that text area and the rest will show.

        Formatting seems all goofed up, but it works.

        My opinion on the meme aside.

              I’m on the same Voyager version, but tapping the picture just gives me the picture with no text.

              I took a screenshot, but I can’t see a way to embed it - never mind, closing my keyboard gave me the image, attachment, and formatting options back. The screenshot should be here:

                  Yeah, it’s a bit odd, this image is showing for me, but others that I’ve tried to embed in the same way haven’t shown up in the past.

                  I’ll report it to them 👍

          mb additionally putting it in the post body would be a good idea for future posts?

          I’ve seen that a few times on other posts. If there’s text in the body already, the alt text has been separated, but I don’t think there’s a standard yet

      Works perfectly for me accessing an mbin instance through my browser. There’s an “alt” button on the bottom right of the image that displays it

      I don’t see it by default on Sync but if I go into the menu and click view image then the alt text is there.
