@afreytes for alt text, the alt4you hashtag can be used as a way to open the discourse about alt text in a less confrontational way, with the bonus of providing alt text to those that can't easily add it for sensible reasons (time, disabilities); for other aspects there may or may not be comparable approaches, but education still matters.

I want to become fluent in English. Not reading and writing, but speaking.

And on the one hand, if everybody informs them, then the poster gets an avalanche of replies all about adding alt text, which is frustrating and even with the best tone and intentions can be off putting, but OTOH, nobody informing them means they don't learn about the feature (bystander effect). Even copying the image to add alt text yourself can be seen negatively (“stealing the thunder”).So it's hard to strike the right balance.

@afreytes the downside of this approach is the lack of education that allows down or even prevents adoption of good behavior. For example, I don't post many images, but if I had never come across the discussion about the importance of alt text, I would have never learned to use it myself. And when you come across someone who posts images without alt text you never know if it's because of ignorance or lack of care. >
