The internet is an opportunity to connect and share great things, but often it is used to spread hate, misinformation, or isn't as accessible as it could be.
We encourage creativity, kindness, inclusion and accessibility and help you avoid those who don't.
For those who make use of alt text here is a version that is accessible! #AltText #Alt4U

It would be nice if those trying to change things for the better didn't exclude people by making information inaccessible.

Images that are just text take 10 seconds to add alt text with a simple copy/paste.

Fixed this one as the original lacked alt text... Now everyone including blind or partially sighted folks ere welcome here.

#AltText #Alt4U

Alt text should be on every image posted. Especially ones that claim to welcome and include everyone. Info here: bsky.app/profile/cast...

Being an ally is greatly appreciated.
But let's make sure when letting the world know we are allies that we are not excluding people from that message.

Everyone deserves to see who is supporting them. Which means making sure images are accessible with #AltText #Alt4U

Great work! Hope the streams go well and a lot of money raised for a very worthy charity helping those otherwise excluded from gaming to get to play as well!

We've added some #AltText to your rewards table so that it's accessible for all on Bluesky as well.

#Alt4U #AltText

Especially for a fundraiser for a charity doing great work in inclusion and accessibility making sure information about their event is accessible to all feels particularly important.

#Alt4U

For images of text (especially highlighted ones) all that's needed is a quick Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V and you've made your post accessible, more likely to show up in search results and respected people's choice to mute words/topics.

Version with #AltText #Alt4U
Image posts that are just text are easy to provide alt text on, the minimum really is just copy/pasting the text into the alt text field.

It helps make it more accessible whilst also showing up in relevant searches and respecting people's muted words.

Interesting indeed. Now with #AltText! #Alt4U

Now with Alt Text.
Please remember to add alt text to all image posts, especially when it's just a image of text! It only takes a moment but means your post is accessible to all.

We have a mod list of accounts that post news/politics and don't add alt text if you want to clear up your feed.

With added alt-text as this message is important and something we believe in and when talking about making sure people don't feel left out, let's try to make sure we remember to practice what we preach.
