Comment:

 Hello and thanks for the ticket :)

 Concerning the three images:

 1. 6.0 illustration image doesn't need any alt text. It is hidden from
 assistive technologies using `aria-hidden`.
 2. Same goes for the site health score circle.
 3. Activity widget (comments): alt is empty, which is fine since it
 doesn't contain any relevant info. Adding an alt with info about the
 commenter would be redundant with the text displayed near the image.

 Everything look good to me at a glance :)
