Huh. Would that be a good solution, like a hover popup you mean? I’m not into CSS. Will screen readers get that? Shouldn’t be crazy difficult to make a bot otherwise, screen reader scans images for text on request by poster or automatically. We have bots here right?
That sounds like a great idea, in that case, but I know 0 about HTML, I just make systems run. Where do we go to suggest something like it? Lemmy is a whole new thing for me so…
Dude I’m just a drunk gal with an internet connection, you would not believe the things that slip my mind on a daily basis.
I am always respectful and try to mind, but I’m not exactly omniscient either, I can barely hold my life together know what I mean? So sorry for no subtitles, but there are tons of super cool people here who do it voluntarily so that everyone can enjoy the knowledge of how deeply we are being spied on by Google. And our fight against it!
It’s not an indictment of you, it’s an indictment of Lemmy. AP has alt-text in the format. AP clients - almost uniformly - have space for alt text whanever pictures are posted, and the best of the remind and encourage you to add alt text when you post pictures. Lemmy provides no facility for alt-text; for a platform developed in this century and largely populated by inclusive liberals, it’s a rather shocking omission.
I do not understand the downvotes. Accessability is inclusiveness.
Lemmy’s kinda shit on the alt-text front, too. The Mastodon/ActivityPub community is far better about this.

Not sure what you mean. Just type the alt in markdown
