Someone needs to make a bot that can transcribe with optical character recognition to transcribe posts that humans can't reach

Maybe yeah, but it's quite hard to get something that consistently works, we used to do it by hand on reddit as well, when we get enough people doing it it's pretty nice :)

is there a formal syntax for image transcription that screen readers can read ?

Is there an alt text option like in mastodon/calckey? I know that's considered basically compulsory for people posting images on there

I had forgotten about that but I think there is but a bot that can transcribe text from ocr would be a great thing for people who don't add it to their images
