Long pressing on the image also shows the alt text btw

Unfortunately not all mobile browsers will show the entirety of the alt text if it's too long, Firefox Focus on Android 15 and this exact comic is a perfect example, for my screen it cuts off about 3/4 through the alt text. The mobile version ensures it's all readable

idk if Firefox focus does this, but on vanilla Firefox mobile, you can tap the text to expand it :3

Well I'll be damned. Thanks for the tip can confirm Firefox Focus expands alt text when you tap it in the context menu!

Does tapping on the shown part of the text expand it? I only discovered this recently but it works on both firefox and chrome for me
