Great question. If authors include image captions we read them, but I think we’re skipping the image alt texts at the moment. We actually wrote the code to read alt texts but I think we forgot to ship it in this first release. This was a mistake on our part—we’ll fix it this week or next.
This is fantastic! Props to the Type 3 Audio and EA Forum team.
Quick question regarding accessibility:
I’m aware EA Forum posts can both:
Customize the alt text of an image
Provide captions to an image
Is this information included in these audio narrations?
