Mastodon has some norms that are worth being aware of.Accessibility is a core value here, & descriptions/alt text on your photos/videos are important for including blind, neurodivergent, & slow connection folks. Many won't boost posts that lack them.Hashtags are key for connecting people, as there's no algorithm. You can follow them to see tagged posts in your Home feed.PascalCase (capitalizing each word) makes hashtags legible to screen readers for blind users & easier for all to read.1/

CWs (Content Warnings, Content Wrappers, Spoiler Tags) are required on kind.social for posts with images/videos/links of nudity, bloodshed, or extreme harm.Many users also favor CWs on discussions of domestic/sexual/extreme violence, political discourse, & popular media spoilers. It's a personal decision, but some folks may Mute if CWs aren't used. CWs are meant to give people options for how & when they choose to engage with posts, not at all to dissuade people from making or reading them.2/

A good way to think about alt text is that you're telling people what's important to you about the image.Why did you include it?Which elements get the point or joke across?That should be the focus.However, background is often overlooked. If you only describe foreground, it can lack context that helps people understand it or mentally picture it. Example: "Two people hugging," vs "Two people hugging in an airport terminal."Also, text should ideally be transcribed, not just labeled "text."3/3

@Texan_Reverend Your faggotry is a cult. Can you give a non delusional reason for wearing a mask in your pfp? Probably not and here you are on a Sunday morning braying like a jackass about cw's and other pansy ass bullshit.
