   So, you're telling me that ALT text requirement on here is still a thing? No thanks, tired of pasting ALT text always in my post.

     First: "an image that highlights a Twitter post by "System Settings (@app_settings)" featuring a message about Android phone security concerns. The post includes a screenshot of a Reddit thread discussing an alert stating, "Someone has access to your screen," attributed to an app called sjava.music2. The original Reddit user claims the app cannot be found or uninstalled. The Twitter post emphasizes the alarming nature of hidden or disguised apps on Android devices, drawing attention to potential vulnerabilities."

     Second: "An image that is a Reddit post from the r/google subreddit, made by user u/Adventurous_Bee5465. The post includes a screenshot of a security alert stating, "Someone has access to your screen." It advises the user to stop and uninstall an app named sjava.music2, then restart their phone. The message mentions that Google has hidden sensitive content for security purposes. The poster notes seeing this alert on their uncle's Xiaomi Mi 11 Note phone and was unable to locate or uninstall the app in question. The post has received engagement in the form of upvotes and comments."

     Third: "An image that shows a comment thread on a Reddit post in the r/google subreddit. The original post discusses being unable to locate or delete an app named `sjava.music2` that accessed their screen.

     3. PrizeSyntax remarks, "Wow, never mind 4D, that is like 6D. Does it actually work? Can you technically hide an app like that," earning 43 upvotes.

     5. that_procrastinator_ confirms, "yup happened to me," as a follow-up comment.

     The discussion revolves around the possibility of hiding apps in Android devices with blank names or transparent icons."

     @BeAware it is a nice thing to do, that's true, but........let me give you an example situation.

     Let's say, for instance, just for an example, that you took a screenshot. A screenshot of a browser that has a web page opened in it, which contains so many details. Many details.

     And now, let's add to it that you're in hurry in your real, actual life. You, remembering the ALT text requirement, is finding out that it will take you hours to describe in detail your image.

     And now let's add to this that you have several images, and each of them will take you HOURS to describe.

     To me, it seems to be a waste of time to do this. Like honestly, I do add ALT text still, but only to my images that will not take HOURS to describe. But only so far often do I have cases when images will take HOURS to describe.

     So yeah, it's a nice a thing to do, BUT IT ALSO REQUIRES YOUR SACRICIFATION OF TIME SOMETIMES, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU HAVE MORE IMPORTANT STUFF TO DO.

     And, personally - you may think whatever you want - I don't add ALT text to ALL my newly uploaded time anymore, except for easy-to-describe images.

     How would you describe these images I shared on my recent post?

     https://pixelfed.social/i/web/post/788661305870247194

     I, as far as I remember, didn't provided any ALT text for these images.

     @ExpertPlus ChatGPT, but I'm sure you can use any of the latest models and it would do just fine.
