Looking out over the valley this morning. “Morning mist and silver sun and wind upon my hair…”

Some people have difficulty writing alt text, may not be familiar with its purpose, and sometimes the app they use doesn't have the right tools. Instead of criticizing strangers, why not suggest good alt text that they can copy and paste! And most importantly: lead by example […]

@alxsim This also helps translate alt text in images, powerful feature, especially when the images contain text! https://stefanbohacek.online/@stefan/112032360645638338

I beg you fedizens, set the correct language on your posts! I'd love to be able to understand what you're saying in your native language by using the translation option.

Nice touch, designing the poster for the Together for Palestine charity fundraiser to look like a petition. "The absurdity of the context, the cognitive dissonance in our lives today, and the conditions that led to the need for the existence of this […] [Original post on stefanbohacek.online]

"Americans are more positive toward capitalism than socialism, but the 54% viewing capitalism favorably is down from 60% in 2021 and near that level in most prior years. Americans remain more negative (57%) than positive (39%) toward socialism, with […] [Original post on stefanbohacek.online]

@alttexthalloffame I can't remember what it's called, but this has a name in accessibility design, the idea that accessibility doesn't *block* anyone. It's all still open to everyone. Abled people will talk about accessible design as if it keeps them from using it, but that's just not the case.

Everyone wins! #alttext #accessibility

[Blind people that make inaccessible posts.] Not going to lie, having a fellow blind person post undescribed images is a level of irony sighted people have yet to experience. Over on mainstream social media, I see all my blind people posting non-described images on their Facebook pages, and […]

Interesting. "Liu worked with professors at Princeton to test how people responded to two different graphs. One showed winter temperatures of a fictional town gradually rising over time, while the other presented the same warming trend in a […] [Original post on stefanbohacek.online]

@alttexthalloffame I wouldn't mind having an ALT expert take a look at my wildlife photography posts and tell me if I'm doing it right. #alt4me

Finding it too hard to describe images you're posting online? It's okay, you don't have to overthink it! Write how you'd describe the image to a friend over the phone. Still having trouble? Tag your post with the "Alt4Me" and someone will be happy to help you out! #alttext #imagedescription […]

Is any of this LLM stuff actually helping people regarding accessibility. I never hear about that. Just about making little cartoons .

My hoodie arrived!! I love it and it’s so soft. Looking forward to wearing it around my (conservative maga) town 💪❤️✊ #resist #resistance #kindcotton

Oh nice, with the latest Mastodon update (shout-out to @Claire!), we should start seeing proper capitalization of hashtags more often. "e.g. if the client had previously used # ClimateCrisis and the server is suggesting # climatecrisis, the UI will suggest # ClimateCrisis" […]
