#alttext

256 posts · Last used 1d

Fedi hive mind please help For my first ~4 years here, all I had to do to read #alttext was hover the word 'ALT' in the image Sometime in the last month, that stopped working, and nothing I do allows me to see the alt text. I've tried opening the image but... no dice. I read Mastodon in a browser (safari) on a MacBook Air and all my software is up to date On of the great joys of Fedi is reading all of the wonderfully decriptive and funny alt text and I'd like it back please. Help! Thanks

@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social suggested alt text 🩷: Image of a frowning 47th. Below reads: I don't know who needs to hear this, but South Koreans took 6 hours to stop their insurrection, 10 days to impeach the president behind it, and just 6 weeks to convict him. He was sentenced to life in prison 2 weeks ago. Their country's stock market shot up 10%. By the: U.S. DEMOCRATIC SOCIALISTS #alttext

RE: https://wrapped.fedw.eu/@fediwrapped_en/01a1a035-b244-7831-940f-02033cbde6fd Apparently I'm an "Alt Text Hero". I just call it not being ableistic. #AltText #ableism #accessibility #FediWrapped

Two weather reporters, one dressed as a unicorn and one dressed as Waldo from the Where’s Waldo books, share the weather reports for Canada for tomorrow, October 31 for a few towns in this country that have scary names like Destruction Bay or Bloodvein before switching to forecasts to major cities like Winnipeg, Toronto, Ottawa, or Vancouver. Most cities have a cool but dry forecast this year that’s a little over 0 Celsius (about 40 Fahrenheit on average) although Toronto could be as warm as 12 Celsius (54 Fahrenheit). #AltText #AltText4You

If I provide an #AltText for you, it's 100% OK to edit your post to put the text in. And if you do, I will happily delete my reply. I'm not looking for credit; it's fine if you and I collaborate to make it look like your image had an alt text all the time. In fact, that's what I want! That's the best place for the text, not in a reply where people have to go hunting for it. So if you reply to my alt text with thanks, be ready to delete your own thanks after I delete my post. 😉 #etiquette #alt

https://Columnly.social now supports client-side alt text generation, along with text recognition (OCR). Your media never leaves your browser during classification, instead we download and cache a model about 300MB in size, and handle it in browser for privacy. Ideally you would write alt text yourself, but if you can't, or don't want to, its now just a button tap away, and it helps ❤️ #columnly #accessibility #altText

Once again, #AltText has made me look closer and be wiser. I’ve been watching this building go up. I decided it has enough finished windows now to be allowed on Mastodon on a Friday. I looked it up so I could put the height in the image description and discovered to my surprise that it's a wooden building. It turns out that it’s been named Træ (Danish for Tree), so once the sign goes up, I suppose it would have twigged with me eventually. #Aarhus #ClimateDiary #FensterFreitag #WindowFriday

@QasimRashid@mastodon.social#AltText #AltText4You Yellow highlight over the title of a social media post, "Trending: Donald Trump" Author: "qasimrashid", alongside thumbnail photo of the author; timestamp "3h" The social media post: Donald Trump uses antisemitic slur ADL: Whoever said it, it's not good! Elon Musk performs Hitler salutes ADL: What an awkward gesture! Mayor Zohran condemns genocide ADL: THIS IS ANTISEMITISM!!! The ADL is showing us all who they are and it isn't pretty. It's pathetic.

@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social#alttext Bg: Futuristic cityscape on a sunny day with flying cars, grass, & glassy, curvy buildings. Fg:Post from @dylanh763@threads.com w/the following: Why are y'all so afraid of socialist ideas? Oh no, staying housed when you're sick! Oh no, workers rights! Oh no, livable wages! Oh no, ending corporate greed! Oh no, affording food while unemployed! Oh no, spending time with your family! Oh no, accessible education! Like - what kind of society are even try to strive for?

@QasimRashid@mastodon.social#alttext By executing Nidal Malik Hasan in broad daylight for the mass murder of 14 innocent adults, Pete Hegseth is himself setting precedent of how to deal with mass murderers for when he faces accountability for mass murdering 165 innocent Iranian children.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@VeroniqueB99/117395892301161032 Image shows a couple in a car at a petrol station. The man says "I'm getting the feeling Americans are fed up." They look at a man on a ladder, near a sign saying "GAS" with an arrow pointing UP, and "TRUMP" with an arrow going down. #AltText Oh - petrol station is 'gas station' in the USA.
