Alt text is more art than science. It's never going to be perfect; you get one field to enter one chunk of text and it has to work for all kinds of people with all kinds of personal preferences and worldviews.
This isn’t about obsessing over getting things perfect, but just remembering why we’re adding alt text in the first place.
Just making an effort is the most important thing here. ❤️
