Why post an image of blurry text instead of just the text? Does he not want blind people to read this message?

I inspected the element to check if it had any alt text[1] and it just says “Image”. Why bother[2] adding `alt="Image"` to an `<img>` tag?

[1]: Adding it is popular on Mastodon but I’m unsure if Twitter allows it.

[2]: I’m guessing this is Twitter and not Paul.

Twitter allows manually adding alt text to an image. It doesn't have the nice OCR feature that Mastodon has, unfortunately.
