Updated "missing alt text" warning is getting an update 👀 #AltText #accessibility #mastodon #design #UXUI

A comparison of two versions of Mastodon's interface for composing a new post.

The original "missing alt text" badge in the bottom left corner uses orange text with dark background for its "warning" icon (an exclamation point inside a triangle) and the capitalized letters ALT.

The updated version uses an orange background and white text, making it stand out more.

Everyone wins! #AltText #accessibility

A variation of the "Epic Handshake" meme from the 1987 sci-fi movie Predator, showing a close-up of four men (instead of the original 2) greeting each other with an arm-wrestle handshake.

Each arm is labeled with the following text:

- Blind and vision-impaired people
- People with temporarily impaired vision
- People with slow internet connection
- People wondering WTF they're looking at

The words "alt text" are shown in the center where all four hands meet.
