- As a baker and general lover of bread I’m really tired of the gluten free fad. Gluten is what gives good bread its wonderful texture and unless you have celiac disease there is no reason to avoid it especially when the products are less healthy.

- Reposted by Lumert Farmhey @bsky.app @support.bsky.team, it seems to me a DISCOVER feed should not rely on accounts i’m following. there’s a broad overlap in following/discover feeds and tbh the discover feed should be comprised mostly of ACCOUNTS I AM NOT FOLLOWING so that i can discover…new…accounts to follow…
- Reposted by Lumert FarmPlease, for crying out loud, alt text your images!! Do you really care about being inclusive? Or is it all talk??? Actions matter! 👏 👏 👏 (I will continue adding those who refuse to alt text their images to my mute list.)
- Reposted by Lumert FarmEvery day I get on the internet and see someone post something and think to myself “this is the dumbest motherfucker alive” then I scroll for 2 seconds and someone else takes the crown. It’s remarkable.
- Reposted by Lumert FarmI'm gonna remind people that I feel pretty strongly that if you bought one of my ebooks legitimately, then you own the book and however you secure that ownership is fine by me mashable.com/article/how-...
- Reposted by Lumert Farmonce you start seeing how many images lack alt-text, it's hard not to get frustrated. but that frustration also reminds me to spend less time on Bluesky.
- Reposted by Lumert FarmJust finished the amazing Wounded Kingdom Trilogy by @rjbarker.bsky.social What an ending, those final twists really paid off. Bravo, 5 brilliant stars🌟
- Reposted by Lumert FarmThe Indianapolis 500 Starting line 1920 #ThrowbackThursday ⏰ ❤️ 🔥!!
- Reposted by Lumert Farm@flashes.blue thoughts on adding a “hide content without alt text” option? it’s something bluesky itself is missing and would help users like me a lot.
- Reposted by Lumert FarmNow that’s a lovely loaf of cheesy sourdough! Homemade Yesterdaze cheese diced up, layered in last turn before shaping. Instant ‘grilled’ cheese! Slightly over proofed, 2 day cold ferment, dough got a little warm. Screams for an Onion soup, tomato soup, split pea with some ham hocks.
- Reposted by Lumert Farm@jeffreymphd.bsky.social Do you know what this might be? I found it when sorting photos from 2004 taken in Fundy national Park. It looks sort of like a woodchuck but darker and bigger. My son, owner of seven complete volumes of wildlife fact file, had suggestions, but wasn’t sure.

- Reposted by Lumert Farmjfc i wish people would use alt text or say the dipshit president's name in their post so my muted words can actually hide his stupid face from me. 🙄
- Reposted by Lumert FarmPretty fucking please, with sugar on top: Put. The. Names. In. The. Alt. Text.
- Reposted by Lumert FarmIf you’re going to post endless screenshots from Twitter could you please for the love of god put alt text on them a) because you should and b) so my feed isn’t just stuff the mute function isn’t catching because you haven’t used any words on a words based social media platform?!
- Reposted by Lumert FarmAs a reminder, appeals for posts with the "no alt text" label are not accepted and will be dismissed immediately. It simply checks for the presence of alt text, and you can easily avoid it by adding appropriate alt text to your images. This label will remain until a better solution can be found.
- Reposted by Lumert FarmMe: None of you seem to understand. I’m not locked in here with you. You’re locked in here with ME!!! Spouse (from the other room): Who the f*ck are you talking to out there?? Me: …..the charcuterie board.
- Reposted by Lumert FarmFolks, please use alt-text and turn on the alt-text requirement in your Bluesky settings! People need it for a WIDE variety of reasons and I generally won't share your art, information, or promotion if you haven't included it.
- Because of images without alt text and people not wanting to use his name my keyword moderation is utterly failing today.
- Reposted by Lumert FarmIncreasingly thinking how useful it is to have people you trust around you who can say "stop it, you're acting like a dumbass" (I have a few of those, and plenty of others on social media willing to add to the chorus). And how few of the folks in power today seem to have those people around them.
- Reposted by Lumert FarmChicken bones only go in the trash after being made into stock. The Parmesan rind only goes into the trash after serving its time in soup. We have culinary rules in this house.

- Reposted by Lumert FarmIf you don't have extra fast food sauce packets in a little tray in your fridge, you are probably too fancy for me
- Reposted by Lumert FarmWhat disappoints me a lot are all these companies (big and small) that make a big thing about inclusivity on their sites that then post images on here without alt text
- I love cooking shows and I adore Megan so I’m 100% in on this. #food #cooking #foodsky youtu.be/Vdro1p53LYQ
- Reposted by Lumert FarmSuper markets should have a live feed of their parking lot so I can see if it’s worth leaving the house.
- Reposted by Lumert FarmOne day I’m going to post so good that George Takei screenshots me and posts it without alt-text.
- I took this photo of Silver Cock’s Comb to remind myself to research it and see if I want some growing on my property. It’s really pretty but I don’t want to introduce anything invasive. #plants #gardening #flowers
- Reposted by Lumert FarmIdk I really like using alt text cause it helps others filter out stuff they don’t wanna see and this is happened in reverse for me. Like my muted terms grab stuff from alt text. It’s awesome and fascinating. So I encourage yall to use it!
- Reposted by Lumert Farmyou guys know you can just quote-post my stuff instead of taking the images (and also often removing the alt text I put into them all) and reposting the stuff with your own thoughts right? 😞
- Reposted by Lumert FarmRight OK but we all know and understand what ALT text is by this point, and also WHY we should use it. But just incase, here put this link in someone's replies. 🤓😘💕 www.semrush.com/blog/alt-text/

- Reposted by Lumert FarmIf there are any young couples out there thinking of starting a family I urge caution. Kids are cute and funny when they’re young, but, like a mogwai after a post midnight feast, they become teenagers. They’ll empty your fridge, trash your kitchen, unplug your charger and then ask for money.

- Reposted by Lumert FarmJust had a papaya. It’s been years since I had papaya. It was fine. Not as good as mango, better than a honeydew melon. Follow me for more fruit reviews.

- I really appreciate this. I want to start making an effort to separate not liking something from calling it bad. Great advice for the new year.

- Reposted by Lumert FarmYou know, all these peanut butters sold with the slogan "no salt", or "less salt"? I'd like one with "more salt."
- Reposted by Lumert FarmI heard that in Ireland every bowl of chili only has 239 Beans. I had to find out why, so I asked an Irish friend... he said... because if it had one more, it would be "Too Farty"....

- Reposted by Lumert FarmReminder that muting words/phrases ALSO mutes images if the words are in the alt text. If you can’t face repeatedly seeing a quote or a meme, mute some of its key words. You can time-limit the mute if you want. (And please include alt text for accessibility AND so others can protect their peace 🩵)
- Reposted by Lumert FarmSo there is this thing, and it's super cool! You turn it on and it reminds you to be accessible. It reminds you to either 1. Add alt text Or 2. Get help from a volunteer at alt4me Our brains aren't always wired to remember, and that's ok! /nofeed/
- Reposted by Lumert FarmProviding a link to the story you've screenshot doesn't make your post less likely to be seen–this isn't Twitter. Not only does it make it easier for the visually impared (esp. if you didn't use alt-text), but it also increases it's accuracy, making it more likely to be reposted.
