I’m dyslexic and for me, it’s hard to explain what happens exactly, but basically a lot of words are improperly understood to be what they are by my brain. This leads me to think they are different words and then the context of the thing I’m reading is not right. So I re-read paragraphs a number of times, very slowly. Because of this, I read at 50ish wpm with around 40% comprehension. I usually use a text to speech or screen reader to get long reading done, but people never take dyslexics into account when they design things so that can be a pretty miserable experience
