The Hardcore IndieWeb movement advocates for total content ownership by bypassing modern blogging services. By authoring HTML files locally and manually uploading them to a host, users maintain full portability and independence from corporate-controlled platforms.

Does anyone in the #indieweb or #a11y scene have any suggestions for best way to add full "image transcript" level alt text to a website/blog articles? 👀
It occurred to me that it's weird screenshots I post on social media are infinitely more screen-reader accessible than the ones actually embedded in my writings, and I'd really like to fix that.
The alt attribute of images is meant to be short, so my current idea is a full transcript locked behind a <details> element that's listed as the `aria-describedby` on the image, but I am unsure how screen readers (or any form of machine interpretation) would handle that.
Thank you! 😊
