Firefox will be adding the ability to stuff alt text into images and annotations within PDFs.

They have just shared a Figma of the #UX specs:

If #accessibility UX is your deal, weigh in! Or if #PDF #a11y is your deal!

Contribute to the browser that is not a surveillance tool! Nor the one you are forced to use by the other trillion dollar company!

@aardrian I've used FF religiously for nearly 20 years. In the past year, it ran so slow and key extensions ran so poorly I switched to Ulaa. It uses the Chromium engine but is otherwise designed by Zoho. They don't have an ad business so they built a lot of security, and fine grained control over that security, into it. It's become my daily drive.
