Having a visible ALT badge can trick us sighted folks into thinking the toot has equitable alt text/image description and is safe to boost.
Unfortunately, some sighted folks abuse the alt text field and put a joke or easter egg there for sighted people, ignoring the real purpose of the field.
Which leaves us to try to develop the habit of mousing over to check that the alt text is accurate and equitable before boosting.

This account tries not to boost content which should be behind a content notice/content warning (#CW).
"CWs are not about avoiding topics, it’s exactly the opposite: CWs make triggering posts accessible to people who would otherwise have to avoid them, in the same way that text descriptions make images accessible to blind people. They widen your post’s audience."
