That you misunderstood when I was quoting you should really be a sign here: I meant what is a text alternative; as in, can you give a more complete example of a text alternative. Just linking back to the source, especially ones that may not still exist like older screengrabs of twitter, is not a complete solution.

Also you seem to think OCR is for some reason a bad solution when afaik its never even been tried broadly on lemmy, and you dismiss both OCR and manual transcription as "bullshit" when both solutions enable all of the accessibility features you're (I think?) requesting (and they're also extremely commonly used by members of several-if-not-all of the groups you're speaking for). The assumption that everyone here is posting OC is also demonstrably just not the case, there's hundreds of hits for this screenshot alone that have the exact same size, ratio and cropping going back years.

Seriously your heart seems to be in the right place, but maybe you're a bit blind to the idea that some of the realities you're basing this on don't entirely reflect the one we all live in?

Again, the rendering issues were not my problem; I can read markdown well enough that it's not a true barrier to communication. The issue is that it is by no means clear what your point is. Even knowing that's what your message was, it's difficult to gain that information from the text of what you said. It's poorly structured and lacks a clear thesis. There's grammatical errors that make it almost impossible to parse. Some of the points seem totally random to include. Etc.

It's also just... not how a realistic idea of how a meme community works. Seldom do people have the original post to link back to, and posting purely in text is somewhat antithetical to the whole concept (if that was your suggestion, I'm still uncertain about that. What is "text alternative"?).

I really think that if this is important to you, you should go back and heavily rework your template so that it's clear to the reader what you mean.

Yea but I already clarified that my confusion was with the contents, not the format. I don't understand what your goal in sending it is because the message is unclear (though I do also appreciate that you've edited it).

Are you... serious? It's not, it's just a reporting of it, If you would prefer this version of the same information, here you go. Go nuts, it's all the same thing. Why are you so hung up on this? Was your whole message really so meaningless to you that you're willing to abandon it in favor of being sidetracked about this formal grammar bs?

(rewriting ::: spoiler does make a difference to those of us with less user-proof clients, thank you for that!)

You can just go look up the spec, what you're posting doesn't adhere to that. That the web pages correct for it isn't the issue here, that's just someone correcting for user behavior with the parser, it's fairly common to do that. I don't actually care that much about it though, because mainly I'm trying to figure out how to batter and deep fry your word salad into something to do with "accessibility" and the irony is just painful.

Are you trying to say that... this should've been OCR'd automatically then linked to? That seems like serious overhead when we have such an awesome community of transcribers ( ❤️ u guys)

and weep

My choice of client not fixing your off-spec markdown has nothing to do with... whatever the heck is going on there. Could you try maybe rewriting your copypasta to be slightly more intelligible?

Losses due to image of text lacking alternative such as link:

Maybe try something a little bit less "All your text is belong to us"? Because this just doesn't make sense. I genuinely do not understand what you are trying to say.

Nor does it address why you're spamming posts with it.

The heck does that have to do with web connectivity?

[–] Warl0k3@lemmy.world 8 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 10 hours ago) (14 children)

... what.

Edit: Wait, why are you spamming the same broken markdown? Is it seriously just because you think you're trolling people by pretending to be AI? That's... really dumb.

[–] Warl0k3@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

I emphatically agree.

It's a skill! ❤️ And oh yes, the photographers were very well paid for their work I can assure you...

To top it off: The evil feds have set up a twisted profit incentive. These AI companies will be “compensated based on a share of averted expenditures.” In other words, they’ll get a cut. The more claims the companies deny, the more money they get.

just sickening.
