1. is large enough to go to the bottom of the screen

A way to collapse, close, or move the alt text so it doesn't cover the bottom of the image.

Research direction
Reproduce the issue on phanpy.social using an image that reaches the bottom of the screen and has long ALT text, in Firefox if possible. Inspect how the image and ALT text are presented and choose a behavior that keeps the underlying image readable. Done means users can collapse, close, or move the ALT text without losing access to it.
