Interesting things about the new Mastodon #Search.
👍 It searches alt text! A bit confusing when you see a search result where the post doesn't have the term you're looking for - but a welcome addition.
Note - even Twitter doesn't support alt text searches! https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2017/02/accessibility-you-cant-search-twitter-for-alt-text/
