I don't know if @alexaheinrich.bsky.social has recreated this banger from Twitter here yet, but remember these things to make your content accessible to everyone:
A printout of a tweet from Alexa that says: "Alt text, f*cking add it to your photos. Captions, f*cking add them to your videos. Emojis, stop putting them in the middle of f*ucking content and using so f*cking many of them. Hashtags, put them in f*ucking camel case. ASCII art, stop f*cking doing that."

Someone sent me a hedge-hug! I needed it. ❤️😭
A small card with a miniature hedgehog figure attached. The card reads: Sending you a hedge-hug. I may be a tiny hedgehug but I believe in you. Go do your thing! I know it, you know it. Tiny hedgehug has your back whenever you need a pick-me-up.

Today is Giving Tuesday. We have chosen to make our contribution to Lifeline Animal Project here in Atlanta, which does have a matching program for donations today.

It is our animal charity of choice where a portion of the proceeds from our version of Cat and Woof Days benefit them here in the US.

I see people saying

“I would use alt text but I keep forgetting!”

Thankfully, @bsky.app has a setting for that.

- Go to Settings
- Then Accessibility
- Toggle “Require alt text before posting” to the active setting.

Now Bluesky will remind you to add alt text to all of your posts.
Bluesky Accessibltg Settings menu Alt Text submenus Options are: Require alt text before posting Display larger alt text badges Both have toggles for on or off.
