So the hover cards landed on mastodon.social… I didn't even make it a full day before creating a userstyle to forcibly disable them >_>
I also finally got around to updating my user style for hiding the "ALT" tag on images on Mastodon. Mastodon nicely made a change to their css to make this userstyle easier to implement, but this broke the contrived way I'd implemented it before & I didn't get around to fixing it until now lol https://userstyles.world/style/9811/mastodon-remove-alt-penalty
Not quite ideal because what you really want is the *reverse* (a penalty tag on images *without* an alt, instead of a penalty tag on images with one) but idk how to userstyle that.
Not sure whether to publish the hover-card blocker userstyle because it's a feature that's only on one site & still under active development
@mcc Good news, this time you successfully nerd-sniped me into doing the no-alt version:

@mcc Personally I would do something similar to:
.media-gallery img:not([alt]) {
border: red 10px solid;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
@mcc if you hide ALT how do people click on it to read the text? Or is it like title text on the browser version of Mastodon?
