@textfiles Alt text: Screenshot of the New York Times being unreadable because of a "Thank you for reading The Times" popup that states you must create an account or log-in to continue reading.
@k@textfiles Yeah or we could use that energy to insure that potientially almost every major post in the future can have alt. text. Mastodon is getting bigger and we can't just police alt text all the time. The best thing we can do is just have a feature that allows users (who are trusted of course) to add the alt text
@k@textfiles it would be and it is rather complicated but potientially (if possible) we could add a vote system for the better alt text. Or the easier solution would be how the mastodon app im using does it where a red highlight just shows up on a picture without alt text (it would just bother people really)
