edit: This issue is resolved with the latest update. It adds a toggle below the image, with alt-text default to off.

Below is the original post context:


How can I stop alt-text from showing over images? Is there a setting I'm not noticing?

Example:

Wait wait, I can help with this one! I’m on iOS, but should be similar. Settings > Appearance > Posts and then turn off Show Text Preview

    Unfortunately that doesn't seem to have solved the issue.

    For additional context, this text appears when clicking and expanding the image, not in my feed. Usually it's unintrusive, but if the image is large the text overlaps. It's always either alt-text describing the image for accessibility, or just the title of the post. It's not the text content of the post itself.

    I made the same request a week ago, and finally got around to making a GitHub issue for it:
