#Accessibility #ImageDescription rather than just reminding people to post image descriptions, has anyone ever created a Mastodon app that doesn't allow you to post images without descriptions? Thinking about it are there any circumstances in which you need the ability to post an image without a description?
@LarsJohannessen I guess adding a description allows the reader to decide if it's relevant, rather than the poster deciding for them?
@afewbugs Yes, that makes sense, although I think it will be challenging to have *everyone* voluntarily comply with (or even know about) that type of norm. Then again, that's perhaps an argument in favor of your suggestion of having Mastodon "force" you to include an image description. Such a change will likely be met with some resistance and workarounds, but it's perhaps better than the alternative?
