Poorly. It's completely unnecessary for their day-to-day lives.
The majority, like in most of the world, doesn't "read Internet". They have some icons on their smartphones they click to access social media or messengers. Their laptop/desktop browser has a default (sponsored) home page with some search engine which they can use for their news feed (as is the case with Yandex) or to access some online shop or the local version of Yahoo Answers. They can mostly use e-mail with the web-interface, but this skill is surely on the decline, considering how widespread one-time logins with a phone are becoming.

There's lots of us here still, even considering the paragraph above.
