As a Blind person i never thought i would be on social media savoring photos. But the communal Mastodon alt text game is so strong that sweet, poetic or silly descriptions abound on my timeline. Thanks to legions of people who take time to write a meaningful description of the ephemera they post, i learn so much about insects, plants, buildings, memes — all dispatches from a dimension of the world that i otherwise wouldn't experience. If you're wondering whether anybody reads these things: YES.
@ChanceyFleet
I will do this more consistently. Thanks for the reminder.
@malanalysis
@ChanceyFleet I will remember to do alt text now thank you
@ChanceyFleet Thank you. It's worth it to read your sweet appreciation post. 💟
