@jupiter_rowland this is a fine example of how folks pushing too hard for image descriptions end up leaving us worse off in the end.

The perfect is the enemy of the good, right? It’s far better to have pictures without descriptions than to have no pictures at all.

I don't really understand what the big deal is with image descriptions, is it for blind people to understand what's going on?

Edit: Are emoji reactions meant to just be posted as comment like this? I would've thought it would be attached to the post, similar to a like. Seems a bit pointless to just leave emoji comments, if I wanted to do that I could pretty easily paste on in myself...
