In the past there was some dicussion about setting up a community and putting some effort into starting to transcribe content but the effort died down a bit
I’m reviving the push to transcribe content now that we have some other image based communities popping up such as !software_gore@programming.dev
How this will work is if you see an image post with no transcriptions yet, feel free to transcribe it and describe what is in the image. If you are posting images you can also add transcriptions of the image in your post body.
The majority of transcriptions will follow this sort of format
Image Transcription: [Insert what category it is here (e.g. meme, discord, reddit, code)]

[*A description of anything that might be worth describing about the image aside from what the text says. e.g. an unusual font, background images, etc.]
[The text]

I am a human volunteer who transcribes posts to improve accessibility on programming.dev and you could be one too! !transcribing@programming.dev
the description and text might be repeated if theres multiple images in one and each different image description should be separated with a horizontal line using three dashes
For example for the image:

Every time I have a programming question and I rly need help, I post it on Reddit and then log into another account and reply to it with an obscenely incorrect answer. Ppl don’t care about helping other but they LOVE correcting others. Works 100% of the time
