OKAY #MASTODON AND #MASTOADMINS SO.

browsers have this really neat feature where, when pasting an image, you can get the full <img> tag (with some restrictions). why is this useful?

BECAUSE THIS IMG TAG INCLUDES ALT TEXT AND TITLE TEXT!

HOWEVER!!! MASTODON DOESN'T SUPPORT IT! SO WHEN PASTING IMAGES FROM OTHER WEBSITES YOU JUST COMPLETELY SHRED ANY HINT OF ACCESSIBILITY THAT WAS LEFT!

thanks, mastodon, for implementing #ableism in the code. again.
