#alttext #imagedescriptions #accessibility #worldsightday

Hey fediverse, today is the World Sight Day!

How about, as a small gift for the blind and visually impaired folks on here, we step up our alt text game!

Visit https://alttexthalloffame.org to learn why this is important.

#Accessibility should be the standard. In this temple, every tag uses #CamelCase, every video/audio clip uses #Captions, and every image uses #ImageDescriptions. Reach out to join our #DigitalTemple on Discord.

A great guide for writing #AltText or #ImageDescriptions for your artworks, written by a person with low vision.

As a reminder, #WildlyBold will be fully screen-reader accessible, with #ImageDescriptions for all artwork, just like most of the previously released Gaymers For Good zines! (I don't think we did it for "This Is Our Time" but all the others do have image descriptions!)

#BlindFriendly #Accessibility

I'm sorry my recent images don't have #imagedescriptions. Every time I add one, the whole post #errormessages and won't post. It's been this way for weeks. @bsky.app is this a known issue?

I commit as an individual and as your Tea Chaplain to have correct #ImageDescriptions and #Captions on my posts. If I can't, I will make a note and ask for community assistance.

I will probably share inaccessible posts. I just don't have enough spoons. I am sorry.

Question: I can't do image descriptions with my disabilities. I value accessibility and I've really *really* tried. 😭 If I have to do alt text to use Bluesky, I just can't use Bluesky.

What do other disabled people in this situation do?

Skipped Caturday, so I'm going to be using this picture of Cecil to test the alt text function. #accessibility #accessneeds #alttext #imagedescriptions

Thank you as always @rebbiest.bsky.social for putting together our newsletter so beautifully and always ensuring access with image descriptions!

Are there any fediverse servers where alt text is mandatory?

#alttext #imagedescriptions #accessibility

Someone once posted a short study on the quality of alt text of images posted here, not just whether it's present.

Does this ring any bells? Can't seem to find it anymore.
