Yeah but I doubt there currently are any users here. There certainly are none if you go by the results of this poll.

So, you mean, we should make sure that doesn't change?

They are certainly useful for search engines that index images, because then they get to know what is actually happening in the image, allowing people to search for it using keywords.

You add alt text in the post description, that's it. I don't think lemmy supports proper alt text like mastodon yet, so you have to use the post description.

For now, maybe lemmy will implement alt text someday.
