By post he means tweet, right? Google says average tweet length is only around 30 characters and average word length around 5 characters. So let's say it's 8 words with abbreviation which would take 2 seconds to read. If it's 4 seconds per tweet with scrolling then you can now only spend under an hour on Twitter without paying. Good on him for fighting against social media addiction I guess.

I got rate limited in 25 minutes by refreshing my Following feed and reading about people getting rate limited. I don't think it counts 600 unique tweets since I definitely reloaded the same tweets multiple times.
