Since moving to cosocial.ca, running a slightly older Mastodon version, I've noticed I can't view image alt text on mobile Clicking the "alt" box just expands the image.

@johnefrancis Hey it sounds like you know what you're doing with this software. Would you be interested in helping out around here on the TechOps side?
-
@mick I can't commit to it at the moment, the pattern is full. But maybe in the future.
-
@johnefrancis sounds good. Let me know if you have any questions or ideas about how things are run here.
And shout at me when I say something obviously wrong about Mastodon in public.
-
@mick OK...
VMs or Docker/Kubernetes? -
@johnefrancis running a droplet from Digital Ocean, everything run from Systemd at the moment. Headed towards Docker but pretty ignorant of it tbh.
-
@johnefrancis should say: no k8s. We decided to avoid it until we have enough knowledgeable people to help support it.

@johnefrancis What mobile app are you using? Phanpy shows alt text on mobile just fine.
-
@timbray @johnefrancis On the suspicion that he's using the web interface: tap the image to enlarge, then push and hold the image and you'll see the Alt text at the top of the menu. I think you can tap the text to see it all if it's truncated.

@johnefrancis @mhkohne I do strongly suggest trying one or more of the alternate user interfaces. I personally am huge on phanpy.social it's both web and (via PWA) a nice client on mobile.
