Why do people post screenshots (as images) on Fediverse instead of copying the text and sharing it? :blobcatthinkowo:
If you are a decent fediversian, you always add Alt text to shared image, but why even attach such image? Unless you want to prove someone posted this, but then again - is image (that can be easily drawn) an enough proof?
Stop sharing text as image - use text :blobcatbaguettehero: Markdown-enabled instances can utilize
>and enable text formatting as a quote, making it even more appealing.Stop sharing text as image.
Text is searchable, it consumes less space and bandwidth to transmit, is rendered in reader's chosen font, is more accessible. Only benefits :blobcatcheer:
-
What if custom emojis on Fediverse had alternative text too? :blobcatthinkowo:
It is a media element and shortcode usually is too brief for revealing what exactly is happening.
For example: :blobfoxcoffeeowo: - here floofy fox is drinking coffee from a cup with eyes wide open.
Would that be an improvement of accessibility?

Aira at the 2025 NYC Blind Travel Foundation Media Weekend!
Aira is proud to sponsor the 2025 Blind Travel Foundation, providing visual interpreting minutes for grant winners' travel projects. We joined grant winners, co-sponsors (Two Blind Brothers & Feeldom), and the BTF team for a weekend of connection and exploration.
A highlight was a tactile tour of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, enhanced by Aira's geofencing for free visual interpreting and AI. The tour brought exhibits to life through visuals, textures, and an amazing guide.
We're excited for our third year partnering with this impactful organization and eager to follow upcoming projects, including an accessible outdoor guide, a blind music education podcast, and a video series on blind history. Learn more: https://www.blindtravel.org/

Aira on Campus at New Mexico State University! 🎓
Aira's on-demand visual interpreting is now available across all NMSU campuses! This service, available at no cost, aims to make campus life more accessible for the blind and low-vision community.
“Given the experiences of some blind and low-vision students who attend or live on campus, there’s an added effort needed to navigate campus that other students don’t face… Having this type of service is something we’re very excited about.” - Aaron Salas, Director of Disability Access Services.
This initiative is part of NMSU’s LEADS 2025 strategic plan, focusing on making education more accessible for all students. We’re proud to be part of this initiative to expand access for all! 🙌
