How to use this bot to help make Fediverse accessible:

(1) Follow the bot

(2) Post as normal. Include descriptions for images and other media (alt text)

If you forget to include descriptions, this bot will message you privately reminding you to edit your post and add them

If you're unable to add captions, consider the #\Alt4Me tag to ask for help

How can you learn to describe media?
