I've said before here and there, writing on my keyboard is an accessibility problem for me and a helpful mastadoner suggested using a stylus, which i thought was a great idea! So I made one! So far it works well for typing with swype. I'm feeling very proud of myself.

Is there a way to add an #AltText to a post with a link preview - the picture in the preview to be precise? Or what's good practice for #accessibility in that case? I only seem to find recommendations when posting your own pictures/media.
