"Alt text should be as long or short as it needs to be, just succinct and correct. Alt text is not about length. It’s about purpose and context, describing what an image shows and why it matters. Some images only need a few words, others deserve more detail."

I'm really about doing my best & making every attempt to be inclusive, that means boosting images that have #AltText. It takes only seconds to do & means so much. Please & thank you.

Again, one of the most beautiful kind of hidden worlds on #Mastodon is the #AltText for images. Please use it & boost it, of course to assist the visually impaired but also for the amazing storytelling skills you can develop. Just another positive for this platform.

Reading the alt text is becoming a hobby. You can squeeze so much into the description box. Many of you are amazing writers & maybe don't know it. #ThankYou.
