Something strikes me about @
Alt Text Health Check: Whenever I look at the Top 50, I always only see Mastodon instances. This is certainly not due to Mastodon's domination of the Fediverse. There has to be another explanation
Either Alt Text Health Check was developed under the assumption that the Fediverse is only Mastodon, so it's built against only Mastodon, and it doesn't support anything else.
Or it digs deeply into the server code, so each Fediverse project would have to be implemented separately. Since this would be tedious to do, only Mastodon is implemented.
Or people everywhere else in the Fediverse simply don't write any alt-text.
