One thing that was super common on Mastodon / Fediverse prior to this mass migration was adding image descriptions to help be accessible to our many blind and partially sighted users here. Many people won't boost posts without them.
Please consider adding alt text to your images when you can.

@BlurTheFur I feel stupid asking this but is alt text some type of code or is just a brief description of the photo

@Debhruin @BlurTheFur Don’t ever think a question is stupid. Alt text is very useful but it took me a while - and help from people on here to be able to do it correctly. Am so thankful to those helpers!
