so people with visual impairments use a screen reader to use the internet
it basically reads the web page to them
if it's a photo, they usually get some trash auto-descripton like "outdoors, probably a human"
so there's a big push for people to put a photo description in the caption so folks with visual impairment know what everybody's talking about
they might not even be using a screen reader, they might just have issues with the color differentiation or something
so there's a big thing with people sharing screenshots of twitter threads or doing graphic text images to make them meme-ified or to promote the post (because most social media sites give priority to posts with images)
but if all the content that's being discussed is something people struggle to read, they're cut out of hte conversation
