HOW TO SOLVE TLDR-Syndrome? (kinda) - PPeople genuinely not able to continue reading a page of writing like pen-pal would write you but over the internet.... 

How to improve people's reading length without looking down upon them by suggesting a technique or two?

THE REST IS FOR THOSE WHO WON'T FORGET THE ABOVE IS THE MAIN QUESTION OR MANAGE THEMSELF IN READING

So I'm not expecting 1000 pages to be read magically after giving anyone a tip... but something they can stick to... even by doing a few paragraphs at a time and revisiting it the same day etc?
Just not to ditch things?

How to not make them feel bad that other people can literally FLY THROUGH reading things from a conversation perspective even if it's a few pages like someone was speaking...

I can image reading text on a mobile maybe isn't suited (reading on a desktop is super-easy so maybe reading is hard for those people, scrolling perhaps humiliating them?)

I can read like someone in front of me speaking... lots of talk, easy... and then I just take it from there ? AND I find it easy to ask and expect it to be left or right of the target (can't expect 100%)...

Text is not heavy for me or I'm 100% able to engage and be interested.. as long as it's a fairly real original person talking themselves... it's amazing for me someone is writing (not always amazing but usually!)

How to show others this - that it's just text but from a human and while might have emotions it doesn't have to get to boiling point or head hurting it you can just see it as a puzzle or taking the order of points / etc... re-arranging things etc... then re-order them or saying points what didn't work for you...
Acting much like a puzzle? and not a headache?

Just needs a bit of time and will for the right ambience... and puzzling it.

Seems to help if people who might be called TLDR-syndrome people can read more... especially when the 'new' concepts or 'other human' interactions can actually motivate people and build upon it
