Tips for making posts more accessible to blind people:
-Add text descriptions to images & videos
-Make first letters of hashtag words capitalised, e.g. #DogsOfMastodon
-Don't use long strings of emoji
-Don't do "sarcastic text" with random capitalisations
-If you see #Alt4Me in a post with an image, reply with a description and tag #Alt4You (you can also reply with a description for any post lacking its own alt text)

IF YOU DON'T USE #AltText and describe your images, I won't boost them. If you stole them anyway, and are just sharing Goggle *finds* and random pictures that strike your fancy, I'll do the work for you, and include those with Visual Impairment or other languages to know what this is about.

I need a reverse Shark Tank where US oligarchs explain why they deserve billions of dollars while standing in front of 5 people living in poverty who work for them.

Robert, I've given you more than the title. Is this ok, or would you have preferred just title and perhaps author?
This is my first go at #Alt4You so I appreciate any feedback.
The book is Blood Debts by Terry J Benton Walker.
Above the title are the words Justice will reign.
The cover shows drawings of a black man in a brown suit holding a skull and a black woman in a blue backless evening dress with gloves. She's holding a candle.
Behind the pair is a full moon on a black background. There are stars on the black background and also on the woman's blue dress.
Below the title is a quote from Chole Gong "Will have you breathless"

So, with the revelation of massive & widespread fraud & deception in working closely with Big Tech Companies, the DNC, & the Democrat Party, do you throw the Presidential Election Results of 2020 out and declare the rightful winner, or do you have a new election?

ALT descriptive text is used by blind and visually impaired people to understand and process photos and images that they otherwise cannot see. So please add ALT to any images you Toot.
Putting an image into words can be a very creative exercise that forces you to look at images more deeply and then convey their content and meaning in words.
Also follow the #ALT4me hashtag. It's used by blind and visually impaired tooters (is that even a word?) to request mutual aid when they encounter an image that does not have ALT.
Respond to #ALT4me by replying with the ALT text.
Here's a great example of #ALT4me in action:

The first toot is a request for ALT and the comments provide them.

"A small chip with tiny contact pads is being mounted to a much larger footprint. Each of the contacts is soldered to the larger pad with bare wire, bonding the chip to the footprint looks quite precarious".
