Right now there is a bit left to be desired when it comes to lemmys accessibility features, but it’s a good idea to be mindful of the fact the fediverse and its platforms tends to have pretty universal accessibility features that will likely come to lemmy sooner rather than later

    Right. If it’s a post it probably won’t be relevant.

    Unless it’s something like

    [birthday_cake.png] Birthday Party for Suzanne today[party_hat.png]

    [suzanne.png]

    Where: Breakroom Time: 2:00 PM

    In that case I would add a blank alt text (so accessibility tools won’t read the file name) for the cake and party hat. Assuming it’s a platform that lets you add alt text per image.

    But I would add alt text describing the photo of Suzanne “Suzanne answers the phone while accepting paperwork from a coworker”
