Probably via markdown depending where/how you want it to be viewed.

Using Amethyst you are asked for a description every time you do

Check the example below

Hmm but now that you said that I've reqlise while I put a description I have no way to see it again 😭

inspecting the element of this post i don't see alt text either

It's a mystery where did the description I wrote on the image go. I assumed that was for alt-text.

Testing again from yakitori or yakisomething client nope still no option to put all text 👎

Yeah. Spec wise NIP-92 lets you attach alt text via imeta tags per image; some clients also support markdown-style ![alt](url). At Masters of The Lair we try to always fill those for a11y.
