ALT The image says "click here" with an arrow pointing to the ALT description tag in the bottom left corner.
Side note for everybody:
Many Twitter users, including brands, have been using this to prompt people to open the ALT text, where they have left a joke.
ALT text is a hugely important accessibility tool designed to help people navigate the internet more easily, so it shouldn't be used as a punchline. This is especially true if the ALT text doesn't describe the image, leaving blind and visually impaired people out of the joke.

Just a short one this time covering the last few weeks - it has been Christmas 🎄🧑🎄🎁 But there are still a few goodies in there, including a few updates to our resources and tools and lots more Welsh 🏴
🧵1/3 Our ‘Dysgu trwy greu’ team have finished their experiment with @NatResWales. The team ran 8 sessions across 4 weeks on different agile topics. They learnt so much.
#ICYMI we’ll have a thread every day this week on what they learnt. They may inspire you to try something new:
Naughty naughty! TikTok caught spying on journalists and employees. theguardian.com/technology/2…
A creepy and unethical breach of privacy, but I'd still be more concerned China can subtly control what people watch...
⏩ 4 down, 4 to go ⏩
This week we ran sessions 3 & 4 of our Learn by making labs with @NatResWales / @cdps_cymru
It was action-packed and a goodie!
Plenty more details in our, hot off the press, Weeknotes learnbymaking.wales/en/updat…
Big shout out and thanks to our special guests - @richardjpope and @dugboticus - who inspired us all and gave us the tools to think big and think inclusively!
