I don't see alt-text here?

[–] davel@lemmy.ml 25 points 3 months ago (2 children)

I do, when I hover my mouse over the image. YMMV, depending on your client.

My instance is .ml and I used jerboa, which has an alt-text field below the image uploader.

Annoyingly, while Jerboa has a field to add alt text to the submission when you create it, I can't find a way to get it to show me the alt text on a submission that has already been created.

Odd. I'm on Firefox.

When I mouseover I just get a message to expand the image. Like this:

Upon expanding the image, I cannot get alt-text to appear.

EDIT: Here's what I get when I use dev tools to inspect the element:

Notice the alt=""

That looks like its likely the case. Blahaj is a nice instance, but it's definitely behind the curve on current version status.

Be the alt-text you wish to see in the world.
