    I didn’t put any alt text on the picture. If there’s alt text, it was automatically added.

          @PugJesus I’ve gotten on to the lead programmer of piefed, and he is now going to change the default behaviour when alt text if left off by users 🙂

          To be clear, actual descriptions are *greatly* appreciated by the fediverse generally - and not just for people with limited vision - but at least in future if piefed users choose not to describe images, it won’t deceptively make it look like they have 👍
