I'm blind. I use a screen reader every day — to write code, to ship software, to navigate the internet.
Automated tools catch ~30% of accessibility issues. I catch the rest.
Now taking on 3-4 accessibility consulting clients for Q2. EAA is in effect — compliance isn't optional.

¿Did i ever boost Media without descriptive Alt Text?.
Please point out such #Boosts, i will remove them.
¿Did i ever post Media without descriptive Alt Text?.
Please point out such #Posts, i will be ashamed.
By #Descriptive, i mean the Alt Text must describe the #Media, much like you would describe a Picture or a Happening to a Friend if you can’t show it.
A witty Remark that does not describe the Media is not acceptable #AltText on my Profile.
