Much like with Reddit, I’d love to have transcriptions on [email protected]. The most sustainable way to achieve the may be to foster a change in the culture, where OPs learn to and get used to providing their own transcriptions.

oh while I'm here. I suppose this is as good a place to ask as any. I set up a little practice transcription archive on my blahaj.zone account and I wanted to see if y'all are able to navigate it and access the posts ok. here's a link if you want to try it out: https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/c/kebtranscriparchive
https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/c/kebtranscriparchive is good for when you want people from outside Lemmy to create accounts on your instance. [email protected] might be better for people with existing account to subscribe to your community.
Was able to get there and subscribe but it was a bit of work to get there...Does not help that I am new enough to Lemmy that I am still figuring out how to do things.
Don't see any content yet and a no easy way to post there either (no Create a post button yet). However I know a lot of instances are overloaded right now so I understand there could be delay. Will try again after a bit.
Hmm, so this instance is just a place where I'm storing transcriptions I've personally done on Lemmy, so there shouldn't be a create post button. I have the create post feature set to moderators only. It's weird that there wasn't any content visible, because I have already stored some transcriptions there! Maybe blahaj crapped out a little. Thank you for the feedback, I'll investigate some more :)
I have content this morning. We were not previously federated with any communities on that instance so it took a minute.
Oh cool! Thanks, fastfinge!
Good vibes are always welcome and send some of mine back at ya.
Cannot speak for the group at large but a nice to have from a personal standpoint would be stickied How Tos hosted in your community for things like alt text that we could use links to refer people to.
Otherwise it is still too early to have a good idea where the needs are. A lot of time still going into figuring out how things work and where things are. Sure I will have more to bring up as I learn more.
Thanks for keeping us in mind and have a great day!
