#AltText helps everyone - here's why / how: 

A number of points shown using arrows as a big list below:

Benefits to use AltText for all types of users.

Points use these arrows ➡️ which might make it easier to read or skip this longer list of reasons and questions I have below (aimed at sighted or other users to all chip in about):

1 ➡️ For people, the benefits are:

Adding hashtag to posts helps because there are people actively following itself daily as a hashtag. People enjoy using it to read more posts WITH text description of pictures. Those without text aren't going to be read by this audience. So I'm happy there are people we can about.

When descriptions are added it helps signify to those clicking or using tools they can enjoy this content in their feed and is more more suited to them.

2 ➡️ For Sighted people, the benefits are:

When I save your pictures, the AltText helps me copy and paste that description of where, what, who it came from. Sometimes I add your name to revisit your account later or give ideas. It helps come back to talk to you or those that have great flower pictures constantly to look at their account.

So overall helps the able and less able to understand and be reminded about your work and even keep in touch.

3 ➡️ About Creative Commons for pictures (can skip this section)

For those that want to add copyright license e.g. CC-BY-SA-NC etc it can easily write that to help stop big companies using your data (could also put this in your bio to cover it all to avoid copying and pasting as it can be a lot of work),

Add your attribution credits to the AltText (or bio) and show the level of sharing you're ok with.

For example "CC-BY-SA-NC" means it's:
Creative Copyright material
- Attribution needed
- Share-Alike (content can be shared in same way)
- Non-commercial license

or is great. More info here:
CreativeCommons.org/

4 ➡️ I also would like advice about how well I phrased this post:

What do people prefer for example as words:
The blind / non-blind
Able-Bodied / (not sure of this one)
Sighted / Less sighted users
/ Less users ?
sound good like a level of access... but just wanted to hear what others think of these words in the list or big common errors.

This is all new to me but I've been using CamelCase forever and other types of good practices.

Also I'd like advice about presentation of posts...

5 ➡️ When making this post I clicked "CW" to add a Content Warning box even though I didn't need to warn anyone about the content but wanted the one-line compact post because it neatly adds a title bar and "Read more" button to expand the text.

➡️ My question is:
Adding CW doesn't show all the text at once on screen but I was wondering if that makes it harder to access for people trying to 'read' it using other ways?

Does it matter to those trying to use and tools if I add CW / Read more box to text? ()

THANK YOU TO ALL READING

I edited this picture add why it's a good example of (picture is of the moon at dusk and mostly dark shadows and I've added arrows showing AltText and mouse-over description)

8 ℹ️ THANKS AGAIN TO ALL - Hope I did well - a bit long but let me know what I can do to make it better as I can write fast !

"End of life" picture / Outro pic to life... maybe mine... 

An "End of life" or Outro pic to life... maybe mine.

This seemed like a good picture to die to / say goodbye / fade etc.

Add yours here in reply if you want...

It's kinda warm, sets the scene, kinda doesn't say much (which bugs me!) but the end-of-episode type of screenshot seems to override saying anything political / personal. Maybe because "IT'S THE !" and that's always good and perhaps political enough as a warm glow that looks after things...

Chess with love instead? Imagine... (Playing Life with Love more often...?) 

Imagine a where you give and grow things along the way and get points for how you do things simply or carefully... not just without knowing. And even helping others...

but not over-doing it... (could get penalty for that or reduce the relationship points for example!)

Having respect for things while playinginstead of damaging things and people's habitat as the basis of .

Can you imagine / want to make it happen just to talk about? (just as a start?). @freemo ?

Lots of people can reply to this to show they are interested even partially. I think we need to see and represent, more even if not doing all of it.

Why not the way things are now?
Not killing things is good and not doing damage as the primary focus as chess seems to be and also life as almost the same / parallel. We need love.

In life there is also , and but we can do it much less of it today or together at some point, agree ? ❓

I know you do! Let me know!
Because you love every day and many people too! Just need a way to grow that even as a side "job".

Not only doing what goes towards capturing the or for fields, for . Not killing across the world for almost empty victories only to start another empty chess match to try checkmate more .

Something with me, "love" and respect at the end involved! I'll give you lots of points for a kind of better game in life! etc!

Giving / Growing
as game. as small part of life?
(this is the basis of overall)

All of us in the end could be so much more "Legendary" in our own way for living out our stories with clearer quests and not just totally falling for and progressing damaging / extractive types of tricks.

" You might be tempted to avoid the messiness of daily living for the tranquility of stillness and peacefulness. This of course would be an attachment to stillness, and like any strong attachment, it leads to delusion. It arrests development and short-circuits the cultivation of wisdom. "

#SciOp & #CoLiberation (not just Techies but everyone)

It also means shifting the overarching goal of such from “doing good with ” to designing for co-. [...]

Rather than framing acts of as benevolence or , the goal of co-liberation requires that those technical workers acknowledge that they are engaged in a struggle for their own as well, even and especially when they are members of dominant groups."
