I have good-enough vision (read: I wear glasses) and have no issues reading text in images and I still use image descriptions all the time when I see posts
Sometimes they can help clarify the joke, sometimes they add extra layers of humour you might have missed, sometimes you just don't get something
Image descriptions aren't just for people who use screen readers, they're for everyone
As it turns out, accessibility helps us all

Hi I'm Bea and I'm working towards updating all my IDs!
This is long overdue for me (been on HRT for about 5 years now) but my circumstances have kept me from pursuing this until now
I'm both a US citizen and Canadian resident so it's a particularly arduous process. My goal for this is to raise $450.
Getting help with this would mean the world to me :trans:
breakdown of expenses below, boosts appreciated
still thinking about software and abuse patterns
...it's expected, as a design best practice, that designers should seek to control the users' actions. It's expected that designers will pick out the things they want the users to do - connect Facebook accounts, enter phone numbers, buy microtransaction currencies, et cetera and so on - and make it easy to do those things and difficult to avoid doing those things. It's likewise expected that designers will pick out things they want the users not to do - block ads, delete their account, close the standalone app outright instead of just shrinking to taskbar - and make those things difficult to do.
And "easy" and "difficult" here mean operationally but also /emotionally/. Pleading, guilt-tripping, badgering, pestering, misleading ... if the designer wants it, the designer can do anything that isn't blatantly illegal to try to get it out of the user.
That's abuser logic.
That's an abuser thought process and it produces abusive behavior.

A gentle reminder that "trap" is a slur that implies that trans women are "really men" and are deceiving straight men into being attracted to them, and that using "trap" to refer to trans people tells us that you can't be trusted. #themoreyouknow
