I see that the most common suggestion for decorative images is to use a blank alt text in the markup.

However I've noticed the screen readers still pick up the image.

If I use aria-hidden or role=presentation I see that the image is skipped altogether.

Would a combination of any of the above along with a blank alt text have any improvements on the navigation speed for people using assistive technology?
