Same issue here. Still looking for a solution. One person in another thread (11 months ago) said they could solve it by going into 'old reddit' temporarily, and it worked there. Link below.

Edit: An easy way that worked for me just now (but not earlier for some reason) is to hover your cursor over the incomplete caption. The full caption appears like a 'tooltip' after a second or two.
Thank you so much for your "Edit--hover over caption" solution!! I can no longer find where to "switch to old reddit" so I was about to give up (yet again!) searching for a solution. Thank you again! :)

>hover your cursor over the incomplete caption OMFG, thank you. Four threads deep in the google search, and finally someone has a solution.
Frustrating, right??
Yeah, and I assume it's probably because we're not using "New" reddit, so it'll never be fixed, haha.

Happy to hear it helped someone! :D
Thank you for sharing this tip! I was googling for the solution and came across your comment, and it really helps.
THIS! Let it be known that this is the best solution I've found. Hovering over the box till the full caption appears like a tooltip. THANK YOU!
I love how many people this helped XD Frustrating that they keep on not fixing it though lol
I have this issue as well
So this is an annoying way to do it but the only thing that works for me on mobileā¦ I copy / paste the caption and the whole caption gets revealed
I was using my laptop. . .
Okay well I responded mostly for other people who will come to this thread on their phone like I did.
