I want to explain things in more detail elsewhere and I'll probably miss some things but it seems like a good time to make a list of alt text best practice for images of text on social media. So here goes:
1. Include the whole text. The actual text. Not a summary.
A history of the alt text label as I understand and remember it: I'm talking about the little box that sits in the corner of an image on social media with the letters A L T when the image has alt text.
It appeared on Twitter in 2022 IIRC (Before Musk) in response to a user-demonstrated need.

Yet again: please do not share image posts without alt text. It makes it harder to turn doing alt text into the norm.
Also: if you share videos here, alt text is not the way to make videos accessible. Please do a video description post after the video post.

People in the UK! Thiiiis ππ½!!!!
Thanks for the intro!
Bristol is full of buildings named after people & orgs involved in imperialism & slavery.
One of them is the building I work in. We'd like to change its name. The organisation it's named for is fine with the name change
Uni: "it'd be a performative act"
