No, screen readers can't see anything on an image. They need the alt text for that.
But different phones have different features to help. I know the android has Google images, and that will copy the text for you so it's just copy/paste.
As a seeing person who doesn't use a screen reader, I scroll past/block people who post all text images without alt text. Almost all the time it's fuzzy and I have a hard time reading the post directly. Alt text is legible.
I used to block them, but now I mute. Since blocking is public they know I blocked them and then they block me back, which is fine but maybe one day we will be on the same page?
I definitely limit who I follow though. I like a nice clean accessible TL.
