Been wondering why people just upload with “image”.

I try to always add useful alt text.

I'll definitely try and remember to do it moving forward, I didn't know about that feature.

I don't see any alt text in yours when I click the image in my mobile client.

It's showing up in the html, maybe your image viewer doesn't show it?

Sync supports alt text on xkcd at least, not sure if it does for uploaded images.
