@FediTips@social.growyourown.services It shows up as an image for me.. Do text readers not see the blank image box that I see as an image? I was joking with you before but this is a real question. I go to a link I’m posting and if they don’t do #alttext on their page of the image in the link I do a description of the image the link throws up. That way if they go to the link at least the first image will have a description. Sorry if yours has a description on the page. I should have checked first.

Hey, just to add, if you look further down this thread someone has told me how to add alt text to previews, and it works!
The original post's link may still show no alt text as the old version of the preview will still be in the server cache, but when the cache refreshes you'll see alt text on all links to fedi.tips (it may take days or weeks but it will happen).
So, thank you so much for raising this point because I'd never have found out about this alt text fix otherwise! 🙏
