The "Alt or not" Chrome extension makes Twitter more accessible by showing which images have or lack alternative (alt) text. It displays available alt text directly below images, helping users understand image content. When composing tweets, it warns or prevents posting if images lack alt text, encouraging inclusive communication.

With features like accessibility tips for tweet wording and the ability to hide tweets from accounts using NFT profile pictures, "Alt or not" enhances your Twitter experience. Recent updates added support for the x.com domain and improved configuration options, though Tweetdeck support was removed. This tool is essential for users aiming to improve social media accessibility effortlessly.

I've used a similar tool that let me know if a tweet had alt text or not and showed the text, but THIS takes it a step further! I was able to enable a feature in it that keeps me from sending a tweet if I have not included alt text/image description. NICELY DONE! I'll be recommending this to others.

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Alt or not requires very minimum permissions.
