That’s true I would make feature request to those clients to add this very important functionality.
Punch nazis, trebuchet TERFs.
I am building Voyager, a client for lemmy!

I am the developer of Voyager, but there are many great Lemmy clients out there! ;)
literally harmless accessibility solution “abuse” because they don’t like it for whatever reason.
Well, I am calling it “abusing the post body” because it doesn’t federate to all services. Captions (or as Lemmy calls them, alt text) does federate better as it was designed to use a more standard federation data type that Mastodon understands.
So, using the post body for captions actually kinda is harmful in the lens of Mastodon users, and other federated services that don’t support Lemmy’s post body.
Yeah, that’s fair… it’s unfortunate, it’s a really important feature
Im just trying to help. The post body doesn’t federate to mastodon, so nobody there will see it. Alt text e.g. captions does though. This is one of the main reasons image captions were added to Lemmy.
Nobody is stopping you from using both either. However is you have an accessibility concern with captions, you should definitely report is to the Lemmy devs so they know and can make the implementation better.
Yeah it pretty shitty. Will probably be used to disenfranchise students
I voted against it
Lemmy 0.19.5 has captions, no need to (ab)use the post body
Whut about purple people
I mean you could start by composting and not throwing into a landfill… many cities accept with leaf collection
Road trip is more eco friendly anyways.
A few are on Mastodon! https://grndcntrl.net/links/#ElonJet
I don’t remember the last time I needed/missed 3.5mm
Skydive terminology. Its not a chute, dammit, it’s a canopy or a wing.
Woodmans ftw
60 days notice is standard on Mastodon, it would be nice to see instances commit to that.
I believe they’re already is one. Thanks for the offer though!
Shameless plug for my sort lib
edit: Looking at my old code it might be time to add typescript, es6 and promises to make it ✨ p r o d u c t i o n r e a d y ✨
