  • v.2.0.0 introduced the ability to add alt text to media on Mastodon. Even though there is already a way to do this on Twitter accounts with Twidere, it doesn't seem to be compatible with Mastodon.
  • This is an important feature regarding accessibility. v2.0.0 was published 9 days ago and the last update for Twidere was released on October 11, my guess it isn't implemented yet since I posted this toot from Twidere for Android and the alt text is lacking.

@mariotaku Some friends of mine and I are having problems with the alt text feature. Should I open a new issue or reopen this one?
