    400 posts a day seems like a lot. Am I missing something here? Is a post a tweet?

      Seems like a lot but the definition of “read” here means scrolled past. So about 10-15 minutes of scrolling and you’re out

        Oh wow, yeah I missed the headline lol. I wasn’t sure when I read OP’s description if post meant like API post request or like posting a tweet. Turns out maybe neither? But yeah scrolling past a few hundred tweets will go by real fast.
