@feditips Hey @ivory any chance this is on your roadmap?

@feditips oh ace, must find some audio to upload and see what happens:-)

@feditips @paul it looks like Ivory doesn't know what to do with audio attachments. Is this something you have on the agenda to support?

@feditips TIL! Never tried this before but that's honestly super neat, great tip!

@feditips Hmm, am I the only one where media on mastodon doesn't work most of the time? Clicking play, nothing happens, playhead dosen't move.

@feditips I would add that for the hearing-impaired, the alt-text should describe the audio content. For example, "a slow, bluesy boogie, solo piano with no vocal, single notes more than chords."

@feditips

@feditips your post IS longer then 500 characters......

@feditips test

@feditips since Mastodon version 4.2.0 the max video size has been increased from 40 to 99 MB (alongside of increased max resolution for video). I believe the VIDEO_LIMIT is also used for audio.

@feditips For me the playback does not work - it's just an image with a non-functioning start-play (triangular) icon and a couple of never changing time numbers.

@feditips my app will continue playing it even when I browse away. So that's nice. (It's an option.)

@feditips in this case I'm guessing "artwork" means "graphical artwork"? Because I doubt I can attach a statue, or a piece of performance art.

@feditips

What would be cool, if we also could upload ebooks like images, videos and music.

@feditips could this be used to create a Podcast feed?

@feditips Very useful! Thank you for sharing ☺️

@feditips …current version of #IceCubes app shows the touchable alt text icon, but not the audio attached.

@feditips Could it cause the uploader problems if copyrighted material is uploaded?

@feditips @briankrebs Huh. Ivory: @ivory can’t process this audio. I imagine it’s on their to do list
