Oooh, Mastodon! That is a very neat avatar representation for reposts.
Everybody needs to do this now because I said so.

What do you mean?

Fair. Obviously, I'm not doing shit except talking.

@moonman Not snippy, I just had no clue in what way you meant. Still not sure I do, do you mean the alt text of the avatar?
And likewise, my reply looks a bit curt and ambiguous now. I literally feel bad because all you guys are doing cool stuff to improve our little fedsoc world and I'm just cruising around in your garden.
What I'm observing just on the face of it, is that when there's a repost, Masto replaces the usual avatar with one where you can see both the poster and the reposter, the poster is larger and dominant but the reposter is on top. I think that's exactly the right way to present it.

@moonman Is any microblog frontend comprehensible to a screen reader?
I have no idea, but my assumption is "no, it's all just a big jumble of words, mostly verbs on buttons, in all microblog frontends ever, and probably someone should do something about that".

@neimzr4luzerz @moonman Then we disagree.
Pleroma does it like Twitter, but my brain associates with the avatar faster, and when I see someone's post in my feed I want to know how it got there. https://social.heldscal.la/attachment/475469

@lnxw48a1 Maybe it's the one Masto got the inspiration for its whole UI from ... was that TweetDeck?

@clacke Pleroma code is sitting there, waiting for you contributions. Look in status.vue, should be a 15 minute css hack :)

@lambadalambda I didn't even consider that you could do it just using the existing avatar images. But of course!
