Re last boost, if you are making alt text, make it descriptive. You want visually impaired people to engage with your posts, be inclusive about it. You took the time to put alt text on your picture which obviously means you care in some fashion about accessibility. The truth of it is though, a simple sentence repeating the text of your post, isn't a description. Don't just tell us this is a bird, or this is a flower. Even if you identify the species, that does not give a blind viewer an idea of what is being shown, unless the person has felt the flower or had that flower or bird described to them.
Even if you don't use AI to help describe your picture, which we understand how controversial AI usage is, there are other ways to help improve your descriptions. Consider the color of the flower, the way the bird is moving, the way a cat's face looks or how your fluffy furball is positioned in the photo. Highlight those details, rather than reusing the vvague text of the post, and putting said vague text in the alt text box as a placeholder. Be respectful to those that need accessibility and desire inclusivity.

Bad Bunny is a UNITER, NOT a divider‼️ For everyone saying she didn’t belong, Benito has been a Lady Gaga fan for literally YEARS! It makes total sense that he would want her there for his big moment‼️ #Inclusivity

Website tối giản nhưng chỉ dùng một vài màu sắc khiến độ tương phản thấp, gây khó khăn cho người khiếm thị. Để tăng khả năng tiếp cận: dùng màu đáp ứng chuẩn WCAG 2.1 (tối thiểu tỷ lệ 4.5:1), kiểm tra bằng công cụ Contrast Checker, cung cấp chế độ sáng/tối, cho phép người dùng tùy chỉnh màu, sử dụng ARIA và mô tả đầy đủ.

Another tech co-op? Yes, but this is a little different. Privacy and security? Sure - though it's not just about your privacy and security, but everyone's (after all, none are free until all are free). There are alternative browsers led by people not friendly to the #LGBTQ+ community, there are sustainable computer companies with ties to hate speech. This isn't about that. This is about promoting alternatives to #BigTech at the intersection of #privacy #security #sustainability and #inclusivity.

So a little while back, @laura wrote an excellent introductory book on accessibility and inclusive design called Accessibility for Everyone for A Book Apart.

Then, A Book Apart folded and the authors managed to get their rights back.

And yesterday, after Laura put a huge amount of work adapting the book into a beautiful website she built using Kitten*, we republished the book under Small Technology Foundation Press.

You can read it for free at:
