Alt text is too wide

[Christopher-Hayes]

Description

Alt text on desktop screens is really wide, it's not good for readability.

Screenshots

Proposed Solution

If we match the max-width of Mastodon posts (600px), we get:

For longer alt text (like the 2nd screenshot), we could clamp it at 3 lines:

Code from proposed solution

Parent div:

max-width: 600px;
border-radius: 12px; /* full rounded doesn't look good on multiple lines */

Alt text p:

[line-clamp-3] {
  display: -webkit-box;
  overflow: hidden;
  -webkit-box-orient: vertical;
  -webkit-line-clamp: 3;
}
