@tauon @zebo @chalkllate @eri it seems to me like they're steamrolling over anyone who might find it impossible or prohibitively difficult to write alt text for disability reasons?
it's also a pretty low-effort, rude response to someone who put a ton of effort into making a bot with their own time and money solely because they thought the fediverse could benefit from it, even setting aside the fact that they now have to beg people not to DDoS it.
on top of that, like other people in this thread have mentioned, running a fediverse server on an old desktop with a ~30w average power consumption would consume this much energy in just under two weeks.
