       I'd love to know how much of "please alt your images" is about accessibility, versus how much it's about "please provide a training set for my ML startup."

       @alrs for me, it's almost entirely about accessibility.The rest is also accessibility, 'cos sometimes I don't get the joke until I read the alt text!

       @alrs I alt my  images and video described my videos for one reason only; I have several completely blind followers! One of them politely asked last year or so and I was happy to do so.
