it's worse on android, where it doesn't fully extend to the end of the line so you can't see the last 5-10 characters you've written. i like that the alt text thing is prominent and not hidden behind a button but like, aaaaagh
This is the WORST. I write my alt text in the post body and then copy/paste it over.
I'm sure it's not the worst text entry box out there, but it's mighty bad
idk why 'here's a button you can press to summon the alt text entry' wasn't considered adequate here
because this UI is well over a year old and the frontend was too fucking busted for that to work At All at the time. this is why “completely redo alt text” is high on my infinitely large hit list
glad to hear it's on the todo list. definitely can understand how that list is a million items long at this point, the tracking bug for my current work project has 50 unresolved items in it
