That's fantastic! Very happy you got the grant as I use and love #OrganicMaps daily.

I'd love to boost this, but can't on principal as the screenshot has no alt text. That the toot relies on people understanding the text in the screenshot, so you're really shooting yourself in the foot here, locking out people with #accessibility needs.

#NoAltTextNoBoost

Anyway, thank you for making a great #FOSS app and congrats on the grant!

@Blort Done. It wasn't easy to find.

Thank you! Yes, if you don't enter the text when you first upload the image, the current UI does make it difficult to find. Usually the easiest way is just to choose edit on the toot, delete the image and reupload. Then it asks you for the alt text.

Anyway, thank you for both adding the text to improve accessibility and for a beautiful, clean and usable app!
