Absolutely. Never let anyone tell you garlic bread isn't worth it.

Thanks. I couldn't believe perspective alone could cause its head to look that narrow and elongated. Seems like it's quite narrow and elongated from the get go.

It is, but the perspective exaggerates it quite a bit.

Hmm, looks like there's a typo in the alt text. It's supposed to be worht.

[marighost@piefed.social]

you got me!

genuine question, because I try to include alt text for those that need it: is it better to transcribe exactly as written or correct typos, even if they're part of the joke?

I don't want alt text peeps to miss out on a funny, but I'm thinking for screen readers, it might interpret "worht" weird.

[aldente@sh.itjust.works]

Good question. I'm honestly not sure. You have a good point about screen readers, so I think the way you have it would be preferred by those who need the text. Alternatively, I've seen "[sic]" used to indicate that text is reproduced exactly as it originally appeared, including errors. However, I'm not sure if that would help screen readers in any way.

I was only pointing it out because it seemed fun to claim "worht" was in any way correct. Also, I always wondered if the alt text was manually entered or if some AI/ML generated it from the submitted photo. Thanks for clearing that up for me!
