Only George Takei’s post was on Threads. He’s sharing a screenshot of the other two, which are on Twitter. I don’t want to link to Threads, but here’s a screenshot in dark mode:
Nope, just me, and just when I feel like it (often when I see a post I want to comment on anyway).
Ideally, OPs would do it on their own posts. Failing that, it’d be great if there were a bunch of people who could follow my lead and do it on a post or two per day. AI can be helpful, especially for OCR, but personally I wouldn’t trust it to point out salient parts of the image in a relatively easy-to-read format.

Oh thanks! I was wondering why the first one didn’t display a handle when the other two did.
Are you running a bot that does this? I was considering making one for instances to run, but was concerned that people might think “AI bad” about it.

I wouldn’t have, but Qwen3 VL (fairly new open model) has been doing a fantastic job of both describing and OCR in my local AI setup thus far.
Thanks! That was really nice of you.
