   I really don't want to be the accessibility police in here, but please, folks, it costs you a few seconds of your time.

   There ARE blind folks in here. No, it's not a hypothetical. A friend of mine in here is legally blind and requires a screen reader. If I boost non-tagged images it would frustrate her like you have no idea, and it would also ruin our friendship. Not to mention, it would make her feel like she's disposable. Do you want me to tell her she's being a snob because she's (air-quotes) "forcing" folks to type those "annoying" descriptions? Go ahead, tell her yourselves, because she's probably reading this right now. ?

   Sigh.

   I beg you, don't ruin this beautiful accessible space that cost many of us years to build.

   Boosts OK.
