    To that level of detail, probably not. But the alt text isn’t for me, and I appreciate the time and effort op took to put in it to be considerate of those who do need it.

    To further clarify, the alt text can be read by text to speech, the image cannot. That is why the alt text is useful - at least this is my understanding.

    Dude, I’m sorry, but you are wrong. Everything is advertising. Even IF you somehow manage to avoid ads, others don’t. They form opinions around ads and that will filter through to you in one way or another.

    Shitty and annoying ads ABSOLUTELY have the opposite effect. They make you avoid things when they are bad - you know what thats called? Bad advertising. You will never know when you are hit by a good advertisement. All the online research you do for your stuff - some of the people that wrote the things you researched may have been swayed by advertisements, then that tickles down to you.

    If you know what Nike, Adidas, Gap, McDonalds, Walmart is - then advertising works. Brand recognition is advertising.

    Simple as that.

    But look, I will drop this convo, I promise im not trying to troll or annoy you. I just wanted to point out advertising is so much deeper than just you seeing an ad and immediately buying it. Its been around for centuries and it wouldnt still be happening if it wasnt effective.

    edit: BTW - You said Pop-socket. Not phone stand. Pop-socket is a brand. You are advertising for them. I’m just saying. Advertising works. :)
