Again, this is all in response to someone making the (ridiculous) claim that they see 2 posts every second. Without taking into account any interactions (shares, replies etc) or actually comprehending or processing anything that they see. However, the longer this interaction with you goes on the more I am inclined to believe that possibility.
They might see 2 posts but they aren't actively reading them, some of the posts **don't matter** so they are skipped over. On mobile you'd likely see 2-3 posts per scroll, if 2 don't interest you and it takes about a second to scroll some more, it'd likely actually average out to 2 posts, most of which are skipped because you aren't even reading them, just glancing and ignoring.
Open up the stopwatch on your phone. And count "one two" every second. Do that for 15 seconds and tell me honestly that there are many people who would average that sort of breakneck speed of using social media.

Nobody is replying to every tweet they see lmao. The vast majority of users don't even tweet at all and only scroll
