Okay, #MastoHiveMind - I'm worried that my #AltText game is too wordy, that I'm trying to document everything in the image rather than try to capture its essence.
I'm especially interested in hearing from people who use screenreaders.

Ther Fediverse is...@PaulaToThePeople
Yeah, moderation is key - but my point about Fedi feeling too big is when another Magat/GOPer/out-and-our-Nazi instance (or, green in the UK, another Brexiter/Kipper/ToryScum/TommyRobinson-loving instance) infillitrates our feeds before anyone knows they are there, it takes a while to block them all.
On average, we do a far better job of moderation here on Fedi than the corporate social media silos ever did, but it still takes work. -
Ther Fediverse is...@PaulaToThePeople
The Fediverse always has been (and will be, for the forseeable) just right.
When I first started using Mastodon back in 2017, it often felt too small, in terms of users interested in some of my niche interests (like this account), but was otherwise a warm and friendly place.
Now, although it occasionally feels a bit too big, it still remains a generally warm and friendly place, with most niche interests represented.
Certain parts of the Fediverse have Nazi problem, which means playing constant games of Whack-A-Mole with the block button, which I think most of us would prefer not to have, but being on an instance with an active (possibly pro-active) mod team helps most people with this.
