I’m feeling concerned that many of us have recently joined #Mastodon and that the long term visually impaired community are now inundated with beautiful photos with no #alttext to describe the photo. Only about 1 in 5 Toots describe photos on my timeline. We all need to curb our enthusiasm to share undescribed photos and embrace our descriptive writing. I’m not on my high horse just concerned that we’ve arrived en masse and need to do our very best to embrace #MastodonCulture.
@miripiri Thanks for writing this!
@ruario @miripiri people can follow @PleaseCaption or @alt_text to get a friendly nagging if/when they forget to add alt text
it's a great way of training yourself to do it every time
