    @mikko Cool. Interestingly, I had issues scanning with my phone when displayed on the iPad. All the scanners I tried (quite a few) needed a margin above/below. After figuring that, even the built in one worked. So I added some margins in case anyone has issues scanning the previous.
    oh my god twitter doesn’t include alt text from images in their API

      @mikko This made me go down a rabbithole and learn about the ALPHANUMERIC mode, which fits even more text, 4296 characters to be precise. Roughly 45% as much as 8-bit. But I'm not sure of the use-case for that amount of text. Not very readable, lacking line-breaks for one.
