I posted multi-line text into the alt text field, let’s see how it turns out once published.

Upon Preview: never mind Alt Text, even Piefed’s regular posting area has the issue of “not respecting” the line breaks. Might have to try with double line breaks in both Alt Text & body text.

For comparison, here’s how it displays in standard Mastodon web interface.

ALT TEXT

A poster for the film Silver Bullet (1985), with some text added by me.

In a misty, moonlit forest, a woman holds a boy in a wheelchair as they cower in fear. Facing them, the cause of their fear. We can see just a hairy, clawed hand holding a baseball bat dripping with blood. Why a werewolf needs a baseball bat, or what its batting average is, we do not know.
