Gregory's Server@matuzo Thanks for the advent calendar and thanks for this first article to @rianrietveld
But may I ask why you suggest to add “to the homepage” to the alt text while we never do something similar for sighted users? We expect all sighted users to know that a linked logo leads to the home page. Why should users who rely on the alt text not know that?
@koehnlein @rianrietveld the image is wrapped in a link which means that its alt text serves as the text for the links. That makes it a functional image which means that it must describe the purpose of the link.
