@flexghost Ugh. I’m actually surprised I haven’t seen that in my neighborhood.

@yoused @Teri_Kanefield Maybe they just want to earn fair wages?
@VedaDalsette I pulled this photo from my photos this morning to post. I’ve edited it, but the alt text doesn’t save.
@VedaDalsette No. I copied a photo from someone this morning and and posted it without their context (which had nothing to do with the photo).
@VedaDalsette Seems I can’t add alt text to someone else’s image.
@VedaDalsette I wonder if mine have actually been saved and I’m just missing the “ALT?”
@DebR @GottaLaff So the right thing is early and often self-exams along with earlier mammograms. Maybe mammograms should be every 6 months?
@DebR @GottaLaff Fact is, without regular self-check you can be in trouble. Self-check should start at puberty. I had an aggressive tumor that appeared between mammograms. Stage 4. I’d be dead if not for self-check.

@VedaDalsette Try posting one with no alt text, and edit after posting.
@VedaDalsette I just tried a photo, and the alt text is there. Looks like it has to be done from the beginning. Editing doesn’t help.
@VedaDalsette That shows alt text.
@VedaDalsette @ivory I’ve done it a few times now, hit save and update every time. No luck.
