Quick alt text tips 1) make sure you do it! We want Bluesky to be as inclusive as possible 2) be descriptive with as much detail as you can. 3) if you can’t do alt text - we have volunteers! #alt4me and someone will help add alt text for you

We need to keep pushing to make Bluesky accessible for all. Alt text is critically important for people who rely on screen readers, and it’s not hard to do! If you’re struggling, ask for help or tag #Alt4Me. People will happily assist you so everyone can enjoy your content.

The reason I wanted people to keep thinking about accessibility wasn't just for the sake of accessibility, but because thinking about accessibility means thinking about others' needs and believing they matter. Even when they aren't your needs.

We have a chance to make Bluesky more inclusive and accessible. To build a culture where alt text is seen as the important tool that it is … it’s literally providing sight to those who can’t see. If you can’t alt text, there are volunteers who will help at #alt4me Don’t make it a joke.

There is a meme format going around Bluesky where people share an image of an arrow pointing to the bottom right, where the alt badge is on Bluesky. The gag or punch line of this meme is that when the user selects the alt badge, they get a joke. This is not the intended purpose of alt text.

Please encourage your moots and favourite artists to enable the mandatory alt text requirement setting where possible! A lot of people, myself included, won't share others' posts when it isn't present. For those that struggle there are the hashtags #alt4me and #alt4you that can help 😊💚
ALT text copied and pasted from the linked website: An infographic titled “How To Write Alt Text” featuring a photo of a capybara. Parts of alt text are divided by color, including identify who, expression, description, colour, and interesting features. The finished description reads “A capybara looking relaxed in a hot spa. Yellow yuzu fruits are floating in the water, and one is balanced on the top of the capybara’s head.”

anyway, i think EVERYONE should enable the “require alt text” option in settings and just… try. if you look at the image you’re posting and it’s too daunting for you for other disability reasons, be it neurodivergence or physical, you can tag #alt4me and just put “alt in comments” in the image/s

Speaking of alt text, if it's difficult for you to add alt text to images - add #alt4me tag to your post. There is a feed that collects all posts with this tag. The feed is regularly visited by volunteers who would add the alt text in reply to your image post. Please do not abuse this tag.
