A screenshot of a GitHub contribution graph for late 2025. A tooltip hovers over a single green square in the December column, displaying the text "1 contribution on December 19th."

The most beautiful green square I’ve seen in too long. The motorcycle wreck made working impossible for a while, but I’m finally mended enough to get back to it. Champagne and I are firing up the repos and pushing updates again. Feels incredibly good to be back on the board.

An infographic. There are six panels. 1. "Slow internet. Alt text is shown in place of unloaded images." a drawing shows a phone with poor signal, and alt text is visible where the image should have loaded. 2. "Findabillity. Alt text helps to search content." A drawing shows someone searching 'dog with banana' and a post is shown underneath without the words 'dog' or 'banana'. It is implied to be part of the alt text. 3. "Screen readers. Alt is read out to people using text-to-speech software". There is a drawing of the output a screen-reader would show when viewing an image with alt text on bluesky. 4. "Translation. Alt text can be translated". A drawing shows a post being translated. The alt text is also translated into german. 5. "Readability. Text in images can be made legible" There is a drawing of some truly awful handwriting inside a speech bubble. The alt text clarifies what the text is supposed to say. 6. "Disambiguation. Description helps clarify intent." There is a drawing of a post with a picture of a creature. This is styled after the famous optical illusion of a rabbit and a duck. The alt text clarifies that the animal is a rabbit. It definitely looks more like a duck.

Generally we think of alt-text as the domain of those with accessibility needs.

However alt-text is useful for many reasons, which benefit your viewers, as well as you, the creator!

I just over-heard a student explain to her friends about how she was late today because she didn't want to run over a little critter on the road. It was dark and raining, but she eventually figured out it was a shoe. She waited ten minutes for a shoe to cross the road.
