I agree with the sentiment I expect 10x as many reads as writes.

Just thought I’d mention that Twitter’s exposed view count is not indicative of actual views from users. You can get hundred of views on a private account with a handful of followers.

Are there any Twitter lurkers? I never created Twitter account and the only time I visit it is if there's some news article or someone mentions specific tweet in social media.

From what I see, Twitter is just a tool for narcissists, and they absolutely need to write to exist.

Check the view counts that they now publish. Every Tweet has orders of magnitude more views than likes, comments or retweets. Those are all of the lurkers.
