Sounds good to me! Though I do tweet a fair amount of politics too ...

Just one thing - you post some lovely images, but do add #AltText if possible, to make them accessible to those who use screenreaders. A lot of people here (including me) won't boost images without it.

@ClaireCopperman Just a question - I was using the metatext app for but was finding it clunky to use so have switched to the mastodon app which doesn’t seem to have the same #alttext functionality. I have just tried to toot a photo and had to manually add #alttext. Am I missing something or is this a limitation of the mastodon app?

Hmmm ... I'm afraid I don't know much about the app; I'm still using web-based Mastodon in my browser, and adding #AltText is fairly straightforward. Maybe others can help?

Just to add that many people find #Tusky better than the #Mastodon app. Or there may be an easier way of using alt text on the app ... On my browser, this is what I see when I upload an image; I just click on "no description added" and add #AltText there.
