Hello everyone,
In my opinion, the social site itself cannot be considered positive or negative as it solely depends on the user who is accessing it.
Social media if used the optimal way it can be the greatest tool for learning new things and connecting with people for example during the pandemic social media helped us to discover ourselves, and our passion and provide us the time to connect with our loved ones and get updates on the current happening.
On the flip side if a person is just spending hours scrolling through content which has nothing to do with his goals and benefits he's just wasting his time and energy. Research has shown that people tend to compare their lives with others on social media where everyone just posts about their good times and achievements which leads to a major cause of depression. Considering the dopamine hits it gives it won't be wrong to consider social media as a DIGITAL CIGGERATE accessible anytime, anywhere. A recent survey concluded that people would rather spend time online than get out and actually connect with people which questions whether we are social animals or evolved to social media animals.

Hello everyone.
Social media has revolutionized communication and information sharing, connecting people globally. However, it can also spread misinformation and create echo chambers. Businesses benefit from it, but privacy concerns exist. It mobilizes communities for social causes but may contribute to polarization. Excessive use can negatively affect mental health. Balancing its use is vital for a healthier digital landscape.

Social media spread daily news that happens in our surroundings social media is aware information and many unseen creators use it through social media we met our relatives and our friends who are not near us so it is very beneficial in this way we chat with our friends on social media and fell about.
The Disadvantages of social media are people forget their moral duties and moral culture because of social media people do not interested about physical meat our friends and relatives so it is a very big problem for future generations and present time we can use social media on limited time because everything use in our extreme limit it is very harmful to anyone.

Good Morning everyone present over here;
As humans cannot live without oxygen, water, and important food all this is necessary for humans to survive and for buying the essentials and also for some people luxuries they actually earn from social media sites.
Humans in today's world also cannot live without Social media sites. This site gives us very valuable and also knowledgeable ideas about where we have been facing some issues.
Nowadays even new parents cannot stop crying for their baby, and if they started some reels or any other kind of entertainment mode the baby's attention moves there and stops crying.
We all know that if there is a head-on coin there is also a tail.
In the same way, there are many disadvantages of these sites also but we should always see the positive side of all things and then our life will be actually full of happiness.
Every person in today's world knows what is wrong for us and what is right. So, take advantage rather than take disadvantages of what we are getting.

I think both social networking sites have advantage and disadvantage it is a relevant part of our life, it keeps us up to date on what happening in the country.
For some people, it is the source of their income but for some, it is just a distraction, I think it totally depends on you how you use these social networking sites.

Social media.
Introduction - social media sites like Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube. Where people can connect easily to known or unknown people and they get to know about many things and can learn something valuable.
So we all know food, water, and roof are essential for human beings to survive but apart from them, social media is one of them in today's world. One cannot survive from social media, we can do and learn so many things from social media because it is the reservoir of knowledge. You know if there is a head-on coin there is also a tail like that social media have its soo many advantages and disadvantages. But these solely depend on the person who is accessing it, social media is a source of earning for many people, it is a platform for many peoples who can show their talent to many people, social media is a great platform for many people who are willing to learn something new. One of the prestigious advantages of social media is that we get to know about the current happenings around us. If we talk about the disadvantages of social media is that social media gives us dopamine shots and one who is spending his or her too much of time in scrolling reels has no use with the future. Social media is addictive to so many things.
Conclusion - social media is a great platform for learning and earning as well. If children are using mobile the parent must do surveillance.

Social media is like two-edged swords, if you are using it then it will consume you and reduce the watching attention span or it's beneficial if you watching the right content at the right time, everyone can showcase their talent and get some fame or money for their talent and some social media promote free speech where you can put your thoughts on critical issues or they also provide platform if something bad happens with you nearby you can post that, chances of getting justice on that case is higher.

Dear friends social media sites are good or bad it depends on you because as you sow so shall you reap.
If you use it for knowledge purposes then it provides you know if you use it for entertainment purposes then it provides you entertainment. So, everything is not bad, it depends on the situation because a school bell sounds irritating at 9:00 am but the same sound is melodious at 4:pm.
Thanks everyone.
