Ultimately, the goal of the protest should be to get as many users off of Reddit as possible.
It's all about harm reduction (or maximization, in this case) and minimizing the amount of traffic and useful data to Reddit. There are going to be situations where giving screenreader users the information about Lemmy/kbin will transition users off of Reddit. In that case, the number of users leaving Reddit probably outweighs the cost of providing a minuscule amount of data to Reddit in the couple of comments it takes to advertise transitioning to Lemmy/kbin to such users.
It's up to the individual to make that evaluation for themselves. If you want to propose a Lemmy/kbin alternative to Redditors on r/screenreader, then yeah, probably don't use encoded text.
