Gregory's Server@box464 I am not really disagreeing with you here, just thinking out loud. Let me give this a bit more thought.

 @box464 Yeah, I'm kind of the same, and definitely more strict about this on here. Well, either way, I don't think the goal of the tool should be to get 100%, and I'd rather not make too many assumptions when presenting the data. I think it will be more helpful to provide more context to the user, for example, show how many images were captioned described in private images vs public? |
@stefan Agreed it has become habitual now to add alt text in all online interactions. I even look for it outside of Mastodon (MS Teams at work, etc.). If I know the person well and we are hashing out a problem with an application (the most common) I admit I don't stop to add the alt text every time.
On the other hand, tho, stopping to add alt-text might uncover a solution to the captured issue as I slow down and write it out!
