Problem/Motivation

The picture is imported but the alt text stays empty.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Create post on instagram
  2. Start import

Proposed resolution

Import the text from the post as plain text and insert max 255 chars (or maybe configurable) to the alt text field of the image.

For WCAG compliance an alt text is not required. The API's I checked return no useful information in regards to the image, and just setting part of the title/body content as alt is actually worse as alt text instead of no alt text.

Unless you can suggest a better way to do this, I'm going to set this as won't fix for now :-).
