On Friendica and Hubzilla, adding alt-text to images requires editing the image-embedding code in the post; on (streams) and Forte, this may be necessary as well. {{Internal link |target=How to add alt-text to images on Friendica, Hubzilla, (streams) and Forte |link-name=See the guides here.}}

==#AltForMe for more inclusivity==
==#Alt4Me and #Alt4You for more inclusivity==
 
If, for whichever reason, you cannot describe your images yourself, you can ask the community for help. Just add the hashtag #Alt4Me and/or #AltText4Me to your post.
 
Similarly, if you discover a post with undescribed images, you can reply with #Alt4Me and/or #AltText4Me. If the post is hidden behind a content warning, but you can still see the image(s), make sure that there isn't an image description in the post.
 
If you have provided an image description for someone else's undescribed image(s), it is a good advice to tag your post #Alt4You, #Alt4U, #AltText4You or #AltText4U.
