The next version of NodeBB (v4.10.0) will ship with the ability to set alt-text with images <img class="not-responsive emoji" src="https://activitypub.space/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/270d.png?v=ea6b9a25659" title="" />
While this was already natively supported in-site, the alt text wasn't federated out until now.

Tired: "Why don't you add alt text to your images?"Wired: "No alt, no boost."Inspired: "Hey, here's some alt text you can copy and paste, if you'd like!"#AltText #accessibility #Alt4You
@Em0nM4stodon@infosec.exchange not only that but since I love to hide little details in my memes and such the alt text is a great place to tuck descriptions of them away. I try to make my alt text reward those that read it as some of the stuff is something anyone could miss.
