@6502B love this and I would like to boost your pics. Could you add a description for blind people?

I don't want to pollute the timeline with blanks for blind people.

@6502B @SebastienK see, for instance, https://medium.com/@TheAnalyticalLeft/mastodon-editor-box-by-someone-who-didnt-create-it-7c93c6c9c792#96b8

You can click on the No description button added to provide the alt-text.

Thanks in advance!

@juandesant @SebastienK yeah I figured out how to add it, but its not possible to edit it afterword, at least on the web client. I can edit the post, but not the description

@6502B @SebastienK you cannot do it for existing images. If the post image is easy to find (or you can download it first from the toot), you can delete it and add it back, and then you have the chance to change the description/alt-text.
