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.

Hello everyone,
So we all are living in the digital era in which social media are becoming an essential part of our lives. I think in my opinion social media certainly helps us to connect with different kinds of people in all over the world. We have a different kind of social media websites and applications in today's time each connects the people but serves different purposes for example.
Instagram is an application which connects people and helps in sharing some good content related to entertainment, values and knowledge.
Linkdin is an application which connects professionals from all over the world and helps people to find a good job.
Youtube is something which provides different kinds of knowledge by connecting people.
Apart from that, we have WhatsApp, X and other websites which help us to connect with our relatives as well as many other people in the world.

My opinion about this topic is No, social media is not actually connecting people as in todays life everyone is using sources of social media like facebook, whatsapp, snapchat etc for making a fake connection with people what people do is they just click selfies, pictures of food and keep on posting it and usually show off to their friends. This shows that they aren't connected by heart and they are just connected by means of showing each other how much happy they are and how much they are enjoying but the thing is they actually don't know how to enjoy as at outings or at public places also they are using phone instead of having fun. Instead of connecting through social media people should go out meet new people try to interact with them, making plans with them, sharing their problems with them this will develop good connecting which is just by heart.

The question is itself a complex one that Social media actually connects people. Undoubtedly, it does, It really connects people who are living miles away from us. We can even connect with strangers and have a good chat with them and can become our friends. It helps us to get connected with our school friends and our loved ones who live kilometres away or living abroad.
However, we cannot deny how it is dividing the parents and children. Because we all can see that every evening when the family meets and the time came for them to stay and talk to each other, every single person in that family spends their time either scrolling through their social media feeds or chatting with their friends on the phone.
To conclude, we can connect with people who are far from us through social media but it unintentionally dividing the family who are living together.

Hello All,
Good Evening,
My name is Pranav Purohit.
Here, I am discussing about social media is that social media is connecting people or not.
My point about social media is that everything has its pros and cons. It depends on how people use this. People use social media not only for seeing reels or stories but also for business or entertainment purposes and to earn income as well. People earn huge amounts from Instagram, Facebook, YouTube and through social media, people get connected with others worldwide if they are away from people or in other countries.
But anything access in life is poison and social media is the same in this because there are chances for cyber crimes and our information and data will be hacked so we need to take care of our breaches.
It depends on how we use it. We should be aware of how to use social media.
Thank you.

Social media has become a very important part of everyone's lives. It is quite helpful to the adults nowadays. As nobody is really interested in reading the news papers but when the news is spread through social media each one of them reads about it and it helps them know what is actually going on. Also, They can connect to their close one's staying away from them through social media and can share each others lives through it. But simultaneously, it is harmful for the now growing kids as they tend to spend more time on social media than actually meeting people or friends around them. The kids do not want to actually go out and play games but rather spend time in social media by uploading content. This could be leading to connections online only for the sake of having a connection. Because, Children miss out on the real fun in the outside world.

According to me, social apps help to connect people in so many ways, and they are gaining so much knowledge about society, about business to improve their skills etc. People can connect with anyone through social applications like Facebook, Instagram, etc. They are also proving themselves by showing their dance, singing, arts, etc. By doing this so many people also want to improve their skills and perform his/her talents in these social apps.
Social apps also help to communicate with anyone where they are in this world to make new friends we can chat with them and call. It helps to communicate our skills through social media. And by this social media, we can watch what happens in our society. We can watch news channels and accidents in our society.
Thanks for this opportunity, and this is my opinion about social media is connecting people.

No,
In my opinion, the social media is good and quite useful if used rightly. But people nowadays, majorly the youth have been so addicted to the social media that they are rather wasting a lot of their useful time on it rather than just using it to get more information. I have myself seen so many people actively using social media but they lack the real communication skills in actual life. This thing people are not realizing these days but they are going to regret it later. So, it should be only used as a source to connect and meet new people across the globe and being a bit active socially and not as something on which people should waste their productive time scrolling the news feed. Everyone should be more active in real life learning new things and making their day more productive rather than being glued to their screens all day.

As you said, There are lot of pros and cons to using social media,
I'm going with the positive side by using social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter we can connect with the people whom we know in real time it makes our relationship more strong. We get the information within a fraction of a second by using social media platforms.
And the other side of the coin, it has times we lose the connection due to some reasons, and we get invalid or fake information. Most of the cyber crimes are happening by using social media platforms by clicking links and saying OTPs to unknown candidates. Sometimes we spend an of time on social media platforms as a result of this we don't get time to our family, our loved ones and our parents and children.
So, by using this platform we must have care, responsibility and balanced time.

Hello everyone.
In my point of view, social media is both connecting people and also making them apart at the same time. Social media has many benefits we can connect with people, we can access information and business purposes it has many benefits. Through social media, we can connect with people who are far from us, but we are getting apart from the people who are staying with us.
For example, we say good morning or goodnight to the people who are far from us. But we never say good morning to our family members. And also, in our childhood, we just played games with our friends or cousins. But in today's generation, children always play video games or watch unnecessary things on social media. So, I suggest using social media for limited-only purposes, instead of scrolling reels, go and spend your time with your family members.
