@alexadeswift I thought so, but having just talked to someone who wrote the article below, it turns out only up to 40% of images are posted with alt-text 😔 stefanbohacek.com/blog/alttext

@AlinaLeonova yup, lots of things that used to be considered a key part of good Mastodon manners have fallen by the wayside:

CW for eye contact
Alt text all images
NSFW those posts and images that may be unsuitable for professional environments, or for people who are not into certain images of a sexual nature.

Also bad habits have come over from other places regarding hashtags, which were always at the bottom in CamelCase. I now see lots of pieces where every other word is a hashtag which makes it anywhere from difficult to impossible to read, and must play merry hell with screenreaders.
