@devinprater Nobody who's worked in web accessibility for anything longer than 5 seconds disputes this. Also, the prevalence of alt text on Mastodon is because Mastodon is essentially a web application, and thus, web accessibility applies. You're presenting a dichotomy that doesn't exist, and caring about alt text on here, which includes reminding people to add it, isn't any kind of indicator that operating system and native application accessibility aren't important.
