You can now re-arrange media in the post you're composing and get an accurate preview of how it's going to be laid out. We've also made slight improvements to the media tab on your profile. And clicking the ALT badge will now bring up the alt text!

@Gargron Thank you! Clicking the ALT badge to get the alt text will certainly make things easier — and it’s more intuitive. (The other changes sound helpful, too.)

@Gargron OH GOD THANK YOU! :BlobhajHeart:
The alt-text situation everywhere drives me CRAZY!
Also the re-arange thing is so good, no "ah crap delete, re-insert" anymore when I already put the alt text in

@bison @Gargron Right??!! These are awesome improvements!

@Gargron Thank you so much Eugene, you are making the fediverse and this world a far better place! 🙏💞🙏

@Gargron
Great improvement on the ALT badge! Thank you.

@Gargron Crysis support next, right? Riiiight?!

@Gargron Please can we have a way to turn off the overlays (Alt etc) on images.

On mobile they always get in the way of reading textual images and are extremely annoying.

Also on mobile the new notifications layout is good but for some reason clicking on the (double) tick now, to clear them, hardly ever works. (Brave on Android.)

Why a double tick?
