As a blind individual, I have to say that #Caturday on #Mastodon is far far more enjoyable then at #Twitter, where the vast majority of cat photos are not described.

It is also been fascinating for me to hear descriptions written by those who sent the image, immediately followed by Apple image recognition’s attempts to describe the same image. Only rarely does that add anything to the ALT, & often directly contradicts it.

There is no auto magical solution to image description. It is something best done by a human, for only that human can explain the “why” of the image: the reason that image was chosen to speak so eloquently without words for those who can see it. ALT allows you to provide those words.

1000 out of 1200 kids in this school in #Oulu, #Finland, arrive by #bicycle, even in winter. 100-150 walk, rest by ski, kicksleds and car. This day it was -17°C, some days it can be colder than -30°C.

Note that this is only one of the four bicycle parking areas of this school 🤗

its on my #peertube channel, you can follow it here in mastodon :-) amazing #fediverse

we have done this video about a anti #mining camp in north #portugal,, it has subtitles in eng es po pt https://videos.coletivos.org/w/mPYQkx5jYua4fG8NJHctf1

For anyone who doesn't know, @evan was largely responsible for OStatus, which is what the fediverse used to run on. Then later ActivityPub was based on Evan's Pump API.

@evan *more than anyone* did the key design work that the fediverse is based on.

Evan is being too humble. I am making up for it. Evan is awesome.

#WebFinger is neat! From now on @dos@dosowisko.net points to this #Mastodon account, without having to run and move to my own instance :)

Wanna set it up too? All you have to do is to download https://{YOUR_INSTANCE}/.well-known/webfinger?resource=acct:{YOUR_FULL_HANDLE} and make it available at https://{YOUR_DOMAIN}/.well-known/webfinger

¡Bienvenidxs al Fediv... !

somewhere out there there's a conference room full of people dressed much nicer than you and I which admittedly is a very easy bar to clear because I'm just wearing my pajamas and anyways they've got a big pad of paper on an easel that has the word "mastodon" written on it in big red letters and "mastodon" is circled several times with the same red marker and nobody in the room can figure out what "mastodon" is and why the company isn't making any money from it toot toot

@Paarsec every admin in Europe right now: "can't this idiot hold it until morning at least?"

Si se cae Twitter el problema va a ser cómo cubrirse de los escombros.

Now they you know Elon Musk exists, you are never allowed to have imposter syndrome again.

You are healed. I have healed you
