Old book page with it's alt text displayed on top "A page out of a medieval hand-illuminated grimoire; it is an illustration of a tree, with each branch terminating in a demon; these branches are annotated in an unknown script. The demons have been replaced with 19th century caricatures of shouting millionaire industrialists."

The best crafted Alt-text can provide accessibility to visual impaired folks but can at the same time provide explanation for us with eyes. Heck I learned the word "grimoire"

Now if only Mastodon would provide the alt-text to me so I could copy/paste it without going through OCR, I could share it easily as example.
Please provide visible #Alt -text for all
