Pixel DailiesToday's theme is #lure, #pixel_dailies
And just a reminder to folks: please add alt text to your images when you post them! It's an important accessibility feature, and it really helps!
Going forward, I'm only going to be boosting folks who add alt text to their #pixel_dailies submissions, and I will absolutely bother you if you tag me without providing it!
If you're new to adding alt text, this helpful article linked to us by @OliverUv can guide you!

I like this decision, and the article— it touches on some important points, like representation, or when it might be appropriate to leave the field blank.
To any feeling overwhelmed with alt text, I want to throw in a single question I was asked when I started writing alt texts:
"If your image failed to load, what would you want your audience to know about it?"
Lorenz@pixel_dailies I wonder, can people using assistive technologies read and enjoy pixelart? Like maybe with a braille device? Would be especially interesting to hear from a person with experience
