Any implicit standard on how to contribute
#AltText
on someone else's media, that apps like
#Moshidon
load up from replies? Any of the apps that are about to implement similar thing?

It's technologically impossible to add alt-text to
someone else's
media in
someone else's
posts. This is extremely unlikely to change, and when that someone else is on certain non-Mastodon instances, this will definitely never change.
The only thing you can do is reply with an alt-text, add one or multiple of these hashtags: #
Alt4U
, #
Alt4You
, #
AltText4U
, #
AltText4You
, and hope the user gets the cue and adds the missing alt-text.

The intent of my request doesn't include technologically modifying someone else's post, no-no. What I meant is a form of suggested content: alt-text contributed in replies. When I think about it twice, such system is prone to bad acting, but so far benefits of immediate
#AltText
suggestion and fetching in replies seems to have benefits that outweigh disadvantages.
At least, it's better than to disregard entire posts just because author had no time for descriptions or missed a cue. Plus TIL there is an entire bunch of people that want to help caption things and it's already so integral to fedi that it feels less-than-modern to have no standard of displaying such suggested content in place where you really want it (alt-text right next to image).
Thank you for the hashtags, though! They look like a step forward that apps can boot from. Again, it's not exactly a feature I'd expect to see in every client, just more specialized/advanced ones.

What I have described is flawed in lieu of common delimiter for several media files in alt-text and definition of such text, so I understand why we might not be quite there yet!
