Jupiter Rowland@<a href="https://mastodon.social/@iFixit" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">iFixit</a> <blockquote>and it doesn't look like you can attach documents to posts</blockquote> You can't on Mastodon. I could, both here on <a href="https://joinfediverse.wiki/Hubzilla" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Hubzilla</a> and on <a href="https://joinfediverse.wiki/(streams)" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">(streams)</a> where I post my images. But I wouldn't have to. Vanilla Mastodon has a character limit of 500. Hubzilla has a character "limit" that's so staggeringly high that nobody knows how high it is because it doesn't matter. (streams), from the same creator and the same software family as Hubzilla, has a character "limit" of over 24,000,000 which is not an arbitrary design decision but simply the size of the database field. By the way: Both are in the Fediverse, and both are federated with Mastodon, so Mastodon's "all media must have accurate and sufficiently detailed descriptions" rule applies there as well unless you don't care if thousands upon thousands of Mastodon users block you for not supplying image and media descriptions. In theory, I could publish a video of ten minutes, and in the same post, I could add a full, timestamped description that takes several hours to read. Verbatim transcript of all spoken words. Detailed description of the visuals where "detailed" means "as detailed as Mastodon loves its alt-texts" as in "800 characters of alt-text or more for a close-up of a single flower in front of a blurry background" detailed. Detailed description of all camera movements and cuts. Description of non-spoken-word noises. All timestamped, probably with over a hundred timestamps for the whole description of ten minutes of video. Now I'm wondering if that could be helpful or actually required, or if it's overkill and actually a hindrance.

What if someone actually took upon themselves the effort to describe a video with a timestamped/timecoded combination of visual description, spoken word transcript and non-spoken word audio description? Especially if the visual description is on the same high level of detail that's expected in the Fediverse?

PaulaToThePeopleThird and last report about media description statistics on this server.Since the last time 58% of media posts had decent media descriptions, as far as I'm concerned.In total I checked 1247 media posts since October 23 and 776 posts (62%) had adequate captions.<a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/captions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#captions</a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/MediaDescriptions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MediaDescriptions</a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/AltText" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AltText</a>

MayanaHow has a lack of media descriptions/alt text affected you, here as well as elsewhere on the internet (other social media, Discord servers and other chatting communities, etc.)? (Unfortunately, the choice limit has left me unable to acknowledge those of you who are not affected by this issue. How inconvenient! I do hope you don't feel this is unfair ... :eyeless_smile: ) I have ...
