Ah I see. Let me say this about that. A GIANT STEP BACKWARDS. What is it about #Mastodon with this fetish for staying in amateur-land with one step forward two steps back reasoning? The whole point of alt text is to have it appear as a mouseover "tooltip" so you know it's there, not to have to LOOK for it only to discover it doesn't exist. Oh yeah, you have to click ALT each time just to find out if there MIGHT be something there to read. And if there isn't, you clicked for nothing. GREAT PLAN! Jeez.
