Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!
They're really fucking doing it, aren't they?
They're gonna turn Iraq into a Wahhabi pawn in order to get at Iran, just like they did with Syria so they could clear the Syrian airspace to be able to launch strikes on Iran from planes without the need to refuel. We already saw what the US did with their bunker busters with Syria's airspace being accessible to them.
Those prisoners that have been transferred will escape. I would put money on it.

The SDF and the government have traded blame over the escape from a prison in the town of Shaddadeh, amid the breakdown of a ceasefire deal between the two sides. SDF spokesperson Farhad Shami told Kurdish news website Rudaw that around “1,500 ISIS militants — including both foreign and Syrian nationals — had been released” by Damascus-affiliated armed groups from Shaddadi prison in southern Hasaka as well following fighting there." title="" style="">ⓘ This user is suspected of being a cat.

Of course this doesn't actually display correctly in my phone browser either but that's okay, I know to add accessibility text into that part of the link so I'll do my best to remember to from here on.
What do you mean it doesn't display correctly?

I don't appear to be able to view the alt-text of images in any way on my mobile device, outside of viewing the raw text of a post/comment, but it's okay because I don't need to view the alt-text so it's no big deal for me.
I just need to know what I'm supposed to do with alt-text in links—and now I do—so that's the important part.
Yeah, I assumed that was what you meant. My mobile browser will show if I hold down on the image (but that also gets cut off) but most browser (and some lemmy apps) don't have any way of showing the alt-text, because apparently you don't need to see that?
I'm gonna go make that medal for alt text I thought about.
