    These are dense images of text content that are much larger than the alt text buffer. I'm trying to honor alt text but I don't know how here

    These are images of text containing #childRape allegations that could be triggering. You have to zoom in a lot on the images to read them so avoid that if you are sensitive to that material

      I think this is exactly the right approach to #AltText for this sort of material, even though it does exclude the people #AltText is for. I imagine some screen readers could cope with the images, but don't know. I can extract text from them, but I'm quite nerdy...

        Any other time in my life and for several lifespans before mine it would be the biggest fucking thing

        Not to sound like a feeble old man yelling at clouds but it feels like the world is sick and broken in a way I don't understand

        Is this #news going to fade by next week to a blip due to some new bullshit?

        The news may fade on mainstream news services but enough people will remember to make sure that this follows him to the end.

            @benroyce I hear ya. But I remind myself that just because we're not out here screaming about it doesn't mean we don't remember. Or that we're not doing something. Or lying in wait 🐍

              It's sad, tragic really. But the corporate media enables Trump, and #MAGA Republicans (which is all of them now) seem fine with a pedophile president. Their mask is off: all they ever wanted was power for themselves and hate for everyone else.

                As an early member of Generation X, I grew up with values that are often completely at odds with those of today. How can it be that a wider part of society ignores child abuse? In the past, people would have kicked down the door if a politician or even a president had molested children, but today these filthy pigs are protected. What the hell is wrong with this world?

                    @Walrus 🏴󠁧󠁒󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 @Ben Royce πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦ πŸ‡ΈπŸ‡© That's actually a problem if you're on vanilla Mastodon with only 500 characters per toot and only 1,500 characters of alt-text per image. Your only chance would be to spread the transcripts across a massive thread.

                    If you regularly have to post images with well over 1,500 characters of text in them, you could move elsewhere in the Fediverse that offers more characters, but that's still federated with Mastodon. Examples:
                    • Misskey has a hard-coded limit of 3,000 characters.
                    • Sharkey has a configurable limit that defaults to 3,000 characters.
                    • Pleroma and Akkoma have configurable limits that default to 5,000 characters.
                    • Friendica and Hubzilla (I'm commenting from the latter right now) are limited to over 16.7 million characters by their databases.
                    • (streams) (where I post my images nowadays) and Forte are limited to over 24 million characters.
                    On all of these, you could put text transcripts into the post text body and maybe mention in the alt-text that the texts in the images are transcribed in the post itself.

                    The downside of this, however, is that your posts will exceed 500 characters. And this means you'll lose a whole lot of reach. There are lots and lots of Mastodon users who block everyone who ever posts over 500 characters at once at first strike because they want Mastodon/the Fediverse to be and remain a 100% pure microblogging "service" with no more than 500 characters.

                      @benroyce Can you or anyone tell me where these pages are derived from? Were they summaries from 302’s?
