Auto scroll mouse question

Is there a free or open source software that I can set it to keep on scrolling a browser and software (e.g. telegram desktop) at a speed?

Is there a physical roller that can attach to my mouse to keep on scrolling the mouse wheel?

For example, I want to keep on scrolling to load all the page/messages/comments so that the whole page is loaded.

Some sites or software do not load finish unless I scroll to that area, after everything is loaded then I use Ctrl+F to find the keyword I am interested in reading.

Click mouse wheel to scroll does not work in all software and difficult to control the speed, long messages need some time to load then can scroll again to load again.

    You could use AutoHotkey and write a script to auto-scroll at a set interval or speed.

    An example script to scroll down every X milliseconds would be:

    #Persistent
    SetTimer, ScrollDown, 1000 ; Scroll every 1 second
    return
    
    ScrollDown:
        Send {WheelDown 3}
    return
