Thanks! Not sure if there's been other people doing any or not, but for my part I just do them when I find the time, which unfortunately isn't all that often.

[A photograph of a road signpost in front of a metal fence with a low, long building in the distance. The post has two signs on it. At the top is an octagonal sign, filled red with a white outline, reading "STOP". Beneath it is a rectangular sign with an arrow pointing up to the stop sign, and text reading "THIS IS A STOP SIGN".]

I didn't know you could do that!
From what I can see, this means you can add alt text to images you embed using markdown. However, directly uploaded images in posts don't seem to have a way to directly add alt text that I can find. You can add a transcription in the text body, but it's not quite as accessible as pure alt text because screen readers won't read it automatically when the image gets focused.
Possibly you could embed an image in the text body and upload that like a text post, and that way use the markdown to add the alt text, but that would require the image is already hosted somewhere in the internet.
As far as I'm aware, Lemmy unfortunately does not provide the option to add alt text to images. Hopefully that will change, though!
Ah, that's good to know. For me the problem is that most of my non-lurking activity on Lemmy is transcribing posts to improve accessibility; I post the URLs to an archive to make all the transcriptions easy to find for those who need them, and I know there are at least a few people from rblind subscribed to it, but with this going on the archive is essentially useless.
Hi, this post is supposed to link to a transcription comment I did on a different community, it's not actually a comparison post for the two; this community's just an archive of various transcription comments I did to make them easier to find.
Unfortunately it looks like the comment link isn't working for some reason, I'm trying to work out why.

[Gru, the long-nosed protagonist of the "Despicable Me" franchise, presents to the camera, pointing into the air and smiling. Behind him is a flipchart with text reading:]
And the best part about using Linux: No viruses!
[Still presenting, Gru has his hand in a C shape and his head down as he peers at the gap between his fingers. The text now reads:]
Look at this, a website downloaded a malicious .exe on my machine.
[Gru now has his hands pointing down, fingers splayed, still presenting. The text now reads:]
*Double Click*
See? Nothing happe...
[Gru looks back to the flipchart in a double-take, his eyes round and wide and his mouth downturned. The text still reads:]
*Wine is launching*
[The Wine logo: a slightly tipped wine glass with red wine sloshing inside it.]

STOP USING CSS
* HTML WAS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE GIVEN CLASSES
* YEARS OF MARKUP yet NO REAL-WORLD USE FOUND for styling beyond <TABLE>
* Wanted to center content for a laugh? We had a tool for that: It was called "<CENTER>"
* "Yes please align that content exactly 32.89% left. Please align 59.0px down"
- Statements dreams up by the utterly deranged
LOOK at what FRONT-END Devs have been demanding your Respect for all this time.

[In the second image, Sayori has her head up high, looking pleased, with a finger pointed to the right, where the text reads:]
