I use @alt_text but I guess it does not work with boosts. Does anyone has an idea how to automate this check? On my mobile I would need to swap to talk back and check if an image has alternative description. But I want an easier solution. Any hints?

@HolgerHellinger @alt_text on mobile @apps reminds you by adding a ⚠️ under the image before sending. But you can't enforce it

@lioman @alt_text @apps Yes I follow them already. My ask was more on preventing this with boosts.

@HolgerHellingerWe also added an indicator on thumbnails in timelines if a description is available for the media. @lioman @alt_text

@apps @HolgerHellinger @lioman @alt_text Question regarding image descriptions. Is this just alt-text or would it also be sufficient if the image itself has a description in its EXIF tags?

@apps @lioman @alt_text ah, ok. Your own app. Sure. That is a missing feature on my preferred app.

@kinghaunstThe description is added in alternative text for each media so narrators can read them. We don't check if images have a description in their exif parameters. @HolgerHellinger @lioman @alt_text
