I have encountered more image descriptions on Mastodon in 24 hours than I have in Twitter in a couple of years. Seriously. I'm not exaggerating.
As a blind person, this means a lot to me. If you read this and you describe your images, thank you so, so, so much on behalf of all of us. If you don't, now you know you'll be helping random Internet strangers make sense of your posts by typing in a few more words than usual.
Hi I'm looking for work again
Notable experience: I wrote the Mastodon documentation and I help manage Pixelfed
Resume: https://resume.abdullahtarawneh.com/
Looking for documentation, technical writing, could also do Github issue triage or junior programming, project/product management
Can be either a permanent role or a temporary contract thing
damn, rip toots https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/pull/16080 #mastodev
Pleased to report that @jomc and I are speaking at a free online event hosted by the Internet Archive and Library Futures on Apr 28. We will be discussing her book Lurking, and what happened when "in the 1990's and early aughts, people became users, and users put their trust in a corporation to do the job of a library."

Decided to add Esperanto to Metatext’s target languages on CrowdIn, if someone actually does translate it I’ll add a switch to set the app to it
