i really appreciate all the sighted people trying to support a culture of image descriptions but i wish they would consider the point
it's not "as someone who's B/VI i need to fully imagine what the picture i can't see is down to every detail"
it's "if you're using an image it serves a purpose and i'd like similar access to sighted people to your toot"
an #ImageDescription should replace the visual meaning, what an image adds, which is rarely the image specifics
