Why are people lazy to read?

1. Prefer to watch videos – People now prefer videos because they are fast and easy to understand.
2. Difficulty focusing for long periods – Many people can only focus for a short time, so reading feels long and boring.

4. The topic is not interesting – Many people feel that the reading topics do not match their interests.
