I have been not great about adding ALT texts to my images, partly because I haven't been sure what was too much or too little to write. Turns out: there are guidelines for this! https://webaim.org/techniques/alttext/
I have seen some very lengthy and detailed descriptions and have been like 'that's too much, I don't even know how to describe things like that,' and while things are context-dependent, it seems best practice is to go for brief and informative https://www.w3.org/WAI/tutorials/images/informative/
very much appreciate my job that I asked in our DEI slack channel if there were guidelines and immediately got answers from two different people
