@harriorrihar A colorful city going down a vertical tunnel among rocks in the desert. The artstyle is cel-shaded, the buildings are piled on top of each others and their highlights are salmon and turquoise colored

@Tudwall

I don't usually put Alt text because it makes scraping easier for AIs, basically Alt text is a prompt. I know that this won't prevent me from losing my job, but I don't want to make it easy for those people who treat us with so much hate and contempt. If I put the two reasons on a scale, I know which one has more weight for me, because the images I share don't have valuable information for a blind person, and honestly, a blind person has never asked me for it.

@harriorrihar @Tudwall What makes you think visually-impaired users wouldn’t be interested in what you’re sharing? Alt-text doesn’t just have to be a straight reproductive description of what it contains, it can be something that explains the mood or intent or carries on the content of the post in some related way. From what I’ve heard, that kind of alt-text is actually preferred.

Well, I don't really know. I've been on the Internet for 20 years and no blind person has ever asked me for a description. However, I can tell you that dozens of prompters have written to me to ask me about a classification or a style in the last 2 years. Or even bots that left an automatic description of the illustration in a comment. I have also been able to read descriptions of my work in databases.
