My main selling point to try and bring my blind friends to Mastodon from Twitter is people using alt text. I know I never claimed everyone did it all the time, but still, please don't make me look like a liar! #AltText
@Fragglemuppet It's something I've gotten way more conscious of since I left Twitter. I always add alt text to my images and generally I won't boost stuff that doesn't have it.
@4gottenfuturist@Fragglemuppet Sometimes I'll reply to a good image without alt text, reposting it with alt text (and hashtags) so it's more accessible and discoverable.
