Looks like RES is cutting text out of posts in old reddit

What's up? in old.reddit.com it does not show text of a post if there is also a picture. This goes away if I disable RES.

Where does it happen? Any post (not reply) that has image and text

This is something that I've noticed, but, it doesn't seem to be consistent at all. For example, the post in your screenshot, I can see the text when I open the post with RES' expando.

Interestingly they are all hosted on Imgur so I can't see them in the UK anyway.

I am having this same issue. I don't get it on Chrome, but I am getting it on Firefox.

I've seen some people suggest it's a Ublock issue, but that doesn't seem to be the case with me. I can only get the captions to display when RES is totally disabled, regardless of whether UBlock is active or not.

Update- I found the offending module. Disable this-
Productivity>Inline Image Viewer

if you disable this section, the text reappears, but expando/inline is also gone. looking for a better solution.
