Two large accounts have done fake alt text today, and I've muted them both.

C'mon, folks, it's bad enough to not use alt; it's worse to pretend you have so you get the original Bsky community to share.

Muting/blocking larger accounts who don't use alt, unfortunately.

Fake alt, like "a picture" are really disappointing, too.

SpellFire Sage Burn Bundles are here! We grow GREEN sage with zero pesticides, and those are dried and ready to go! This is a great alternative to white sage

They will be located in the Apothecary! EXTREMELY limited, and perfect for Samhain.

Yes. Then they took the sugar out of it and used less sugar, as a coating on the outside. Like in the early 90s? And it’s different again now, but I don’t know when it changed again.

Met my bestie @thegatesofmel.blacksky.app on socials.

Got to be the voice of Peter Beagle on Twitter for a few years, which was just a super cool gig and gave me lots of excuses to call Peter and ask trivial questions.

But also via that I met amazing Last Unicorn fans too!!!

some people may recall a months long saga, and this may have been back in invite only, when the mods refused to ban someone for death threats against black users because the verbiage was deemed too oblique to be read as a threat. but this is somehow over the line.

This is the image and the alt text that got Link permabanned from Bluesky servers

A reply with an image; alt text reads: 'Charlie Kirk sitting in a white T-shirt that says
"Freedom." A negative consequence follows!
