hi i KNOW i have bookmarked some articles about how to write good alt text but i can't find them cause i have very bad bookmarks management. and now i promised i would send people links about this!

Does anyone have good articles about this on hand :)

@grepfruit @handmade_ghost writes the best alt text. I can't remember if they wrote something up about it or not.

@artcollisions @grepfruit You're kind to say so! 🙇💚 I haven't written anything up on it, but the Perkins School for the Blind has a great resource here: https://www.perkins.org/resource/how-write-alt-text-and-image-descriptions-visually-impaired/ and the Alt Text Hall of Fame posted the handy "alt text capybara" tip image: https://mastodon.social/@alttexthalloffame/112026971409044465!
