@catraxx I'm working on a bot that generates random isometric vector art. It'll be neon cities at first, but I can easily expand the themes drgn_happy_mlem

It's like whole industries are throwing away testing things properly in order to save money. It's insanity

Tablet and buttons is fine, but not tablet instead of buttons, just to be clear.

Who cares about usability and accident rates when you can just put a tablet instead of physical controls in the car and save another fraction of production costs? drgn_cool
(At least I assume that's the reason, otherwise that's just plain stupidity)

I see that Mastodon also still only shows alt text on hover. That isn't very user-friendly. Just think of the user onboarding!

@emmy Oh, interesting, it works with an older TypeScript version. 5.5.4 is fine with it, 5.6.2 isn't.

@kura I talked about it in-depth here: volpeon.ink/notebook/modern-social-media/

My post now was prompted by a complaint about typing quirks. It's really just another variation of the exact same situation we see over and over again on here about using CWs, using alt text etc.

But will this situation ever be fixed? No. Nobody ever challenges the base assumptions of microblogging. At least not in a way that has lead to results thus far.
