Juni! — Reposting with alt-text

I've only been ice skating once. I used to rollerblade a bit, though.

Also I took lessons at a place that did roller disco.

That was one of them. It made me laugh.
And yes. It's like the old birdsite used to be. I love it.

Yes to th ALT TEXT. I also save them with a lower resolution. That used to help in my first few posts.
It's not working anymore.

I forgot to alt text my aurora photos, even after reposting something about doing that....

Something that I would love to do when it is much much safer to do so is go roller skating again... I got to do it so much as a kid and I miss it tremendously.

Seriously: I post a lot of memes and almost none of them have alt text. I want to add alt text but I have to admit that it’s not something I’m used to doing. I’ll work to be better at it to make my posts more accessible to everyone ❤️🎈

It’s a weeeeeeeird place. I used to be so hesitant to share my last name as a kid just cause it sounded German. At like 5 years old I already knew

i feel like MaoMao’s world is mine because i had to accept help that came at such a steep cost. and i took it to hold onto my old life a little longer. to be a part of the world a little longer in a way that i could. that i had to because no one else would help me

I love it!
Would love it more with alt-text because with alt-text it would be accessible to all who need that.

I've stopped reposting posts that have images with no alt text for the visually impaired, but I wonder, would it be gauche if I were to quote-repost something with the phrase "Alt text:" and then a short description? 🤔

Yes. I had that happen too where my real name was associated with my old alt and had to change it to this.

I must be high too, because I had to look at this 3 times to realize "the laser place" is not, in fact, a laser tag arena.

That took me a while. I had to look at the alt text

No one gave me something good or meaningful for my birthday. Ain't not like I can't pay for something that I want, it's just that no one took two seconds to do a little research of what I like. Would be nice

Not too bad. That would be too much for me personally. I feel like the more I handle at a time even with a system to keep them going it just takes forever to finish a game

that ALT text is weird. and i agree this would be a doozy to try and put into text. would love to have them try though! i’d love more ALT examples for art that is chock-fulla imagery and themes. i don’t even know where to start but it would be fun!

Uh….
Speech to text had a little fun with that alt text

It always feels a little weird when I post something with added alt text and it gets popular but if it had alt text in the first place, I would have just reposted that. 🤷

Love to cancel all my plans at once, it's fun actually, I'm not even upset even a little bit, nope, not even at this being the second time in as many years I've had to do something like this

Reposting with alt text bc I love this poem too. "A woman like that is not a woman, quite" really sums up my entire gender experience.

Yes! Even if you loved your experience with them! I want to hear about that! My emotions about a place have nothing to do with yours! And it would be unfair and unrealistic to display only one viewpoint. Humans are far too complicated for that.

Yes. I really would not be able to take on the cognitive load without that little alt text reminder. It’s brilliant.

Sorry for not being clear. 😀 I'm not asking you to make the effort of putting alt text on them. That would be rude of me!

If you need help with putting alt text on something tag me and I'll see what I can do for you, how about that?

It's a shame they don't have a tag here like Mastodon for that.

If it's a matter of my *liking* the old way, then I'd at least take a swing at the changed version. I may be too close to the game to be able to judge it fairly.

If I genuinely thought it would *break* something, I'd want to discuss that with them.
