As #mastodon grew this week I noticed more photos being posted without a description of the photo.
Please include it! Part of the reason I joined is because this placed seemed more accessible.
What I'm trying to say is I want to boost your cat photos, but I can't in good conscience do so unless those photos are accessible.
@_RachelHandley twitter had the option to remind one before posting, if alt text hadn’t been written. I don’t know if Mastodon has that, but I haven’t encountered it. Would be great if that existed. Could that be something mods could enforce per instance to actually forbid one from posting without alt…
Anyway good to spread the word and hopefully people would just remember it on their own 😅
