reply with features and bug fixes you’d like to see in Philthy, the lemmy fork that runs on this instance. no guarantees I’ll get to any of them soon, but particularly low-hanging fruit and well-liked features can be prioritized.

    here’s one that’ll take a bit more thought:

    philthy needs a facility to put in alt-text for images

    and a (default on) setting to warn you when you didn’t

    this already exists in mastodon, that’s quite good actually (includes Tesseract OCR), might be a guide

      I thought you could already do that with the markdown syntax ![alt text](url). Or is this one of those GitHub-unique markdown features?

        ooh I didn’t know that

        needs an interface though

        also that’s probably not how Mastodon etc do it, and it would be nice if images worked over the fed

      I was thinking about something like this recently! I generally like how mastodon does it, so that’s a good starting point
