Yes, social media connects people because in the olden era, we didn't have proper communication with the people who live far away from homes and these days technology has been developed where people can communicate and at times of emergency we can easily call emergency numbers to solve the problem. Not only this people can know the latest updates which are at global level, state level etc.

Yes, social media is connecting with those who are living out of the physical networks (out of the region).
Social media is connecting people no doubt but the people who are addicted to this want just validation from social media for every single moment of, life and this is even matter or not because of this they do not mostly care about their physical relationships.

For eg; is there any event in the family that from age 10 to 80 years people would be busy with their social sites or unwanted scrolling but will not talk to their surrounding people?

So the conclusion is: Yes, no doubt social sites are connecting people but only those who are far away from social sites are not connecting them who are actually with them.

THANKYOU.

Hello everyone.

Today's topic is about whether social media is connecting people.

I like to rely on both yes and no because social media is actually connecting people using social media apps and people able to communicate with their loved ones or family who are located out of the region.

But at the same time, It creates a gap between the people inside their region for ex in meetups people often use mobiles instead of physical interaction but it not fit for all cases.

Some of the people are aware of these threats.

So, In conclusion, social media is connecting people. And the people who are using social media should be aware of it.

Hello everyone my name is Kuldeep Irpache,

So my point of view on this topic is that yes, in today's era, social media is a platform which is used by everyone in cities as well as in villages also. It is an easy way to connect with other people and it helps to interact with other people and build a relationship sometimes it creates a dynamic career path from the business pov with the help of examples like LinkedIn, Instagram for advertising, Facebook, and Twitter. So my point of view on this is that sometimes social media connects people.

Hello everyone.

@All.

I would like to put my opinion here the topic says social media connects people well. Yes!but we are only connected with the people who are not in touch with like friends out loved ones who have been living in foreign countries and we have not in contact with for so many years so social media like Instagram and Facebook help us to connect with them and keeps us connected no matter where the country is no matter how much the distance is but it is also disconnecting people who are closed to us like if we are sitting in a gathering family gathering or social gathering instead of talking and networking we are busy without phone scrolling on social media watching reels we are not communicating with people physically which is again distancing ourself with the people present around us.

Hello Everyone.

So the topic is "Is social media connecting everyone?"

So there can be two answers to it either yes or no but I would like to conclude from both perspectives.

I think Social media is connecting people we people who work on it for a shorter period, for limited uses, and for not increasing their screen time for longer hours. Taking the other loop of the situation, I think no It is not connecting people, it has gone more advanced or far than that. Connecting with people refers to If two individuals live far or the distance is a lot, for eg two people are connecting from two other countries, then it can have a good impact on connectivity because people who cannot even meet for years can meet or connect within themselves easily.

At the same time, It is not connecting people as because of the overuse of social media, people spend hours on their screen time.

If two friends are sitting together they will be going to chat on spend their time on the phones rather than talking with each other.

Privacy: Parents have given privacy to their children before time. They had allowed them phones before their age, this increases a disconnection of children with their loved ones also.

They chat with their unknown friend rather than their children.

At last, I would like to conclude that It depends on the individual.

Hi, my name is Vishal Singh Negi,

From my Point of view, of course, Social media is the best way to connect with people Irrespective of their geographical locations. Social media bridges the gap between the people who are actually in need of something and those who want to supply their products and services. Social media also helps to raise complaint against crimes which are not even noticeable.

But social media has cons. Also, people sometimes create fake profiles which can not be identified as fake ones because of the authenticity of posts they copy. Due to that many scams are happening all around the world most of them are related to fake investment opportunities at last.

l conclude with my points that "not everyone in social media is authentic and real, Make sure you follow the person whom you might know, and never lose your money on fake investments.

Thank you.

I believe that social media is shaped by how we use it and has both positive and negative aspects. On the positive side, social media is essential for maintaining connections with family and friends.

Platforms like Instagram, Facebook, and WhatsApp allow us to stay in touch and engage with our loved ones, making them an important part of our everyday lives.

However, there is a negative side, particularly for people, who can easily fall victim to scams on social media.

Hello everyone,

In my opinion, nowadays it is not essential for us if we use it wisely it plays a major role or else if we use it for entertainment purposes it shorts videos scrolling should be addicted by everyone that thing makes our brain addicted to short-term happiness and one more point nowadays social media platform like Instagram, Facebook has many negative contents if we saw those contents that make us feelings stress and depression so in my point of view use social media platform as a knowledge purpose, not for entertainment.

Good evening friends I would like to introduce the topic first topic goes like this is social media connecting people?

For this, my opinion be yes. In today's technological world, we can connect with people easily through online. We can connect with people through WhatsApp, Facebook, and Instagram and the people who do not use these apps are also connected through the video call in normal or just by making a normal call. As technology upgrades we need to upgrade our lives with technology otherwise we are just living like how our ancestors lived and how tribes lived. For us everything in hand we can do connect with people by texting, calling, and video calling but can't physically.

We can easily connect with our loved ones and also social media is somewhat everything in nowadays situation because I never see anyone without a phone, if they have a phone means they will know how to use it I'm not saying it is wrong. Social media is helping in every step of payment, ordering food, ordering the dress paying the current bill and so on things can be done in the place we are sitting. But the thing is how much we are mentally addicted to that even small kids are addicted so much. If it continues they will lose their life and also they will get so many diseases because of social media.

I'm not saying it is wrong but the thing is how we are using it, for what purpose we are using it and how much time we are spending in social media everything matters. It is in our hands only how we are going to make use of the things and how much we are benefiting from this upgrading technology this makes sense in life. We should be aware of all the things and make use of the things correctly.

At last, I would like to conclude this by saying everything has its own advantages and disadvantages before that it is our responsibility to make use of things in the right way.
