No doubt that social media is playing a very crucial role in getting in touch with people who have done something marvellous in this tech era, from whom we can get motivation and hence aspire to do something new and contribute to global development in a similar manner like them, but at the same time we also have to admit this harsh fact that it is the social media who are playing a sole role in bringing in depression, anxiety, dejection, self-doubt, loss of happiness so and so forth in today's youth, it is the social which is being used today to compare the lives of one with the lives of others that brings among us the so-called fearing of missing out, in this so-called social media era we the youth trying to highlight ourselves far then the reality that creates a gap between our expectation and the reality thus creating a sense of demotivation and dejection that ultimately led to the loss of happiness.

Hello everyone,

Friends, as we know today social media is playing a vital role in our day to day life, this is becoming one of the fundamental need of human being and now it becomes an addiction for some people's which Will be very harmful.

According to our topic, actually social media is for connecting people but now so many People disconnecting, going in depression, getting wrong information because of social media.

Yes, there are so many advantages of social media but we are not focusing on that we are just using social media to show our self, our beauty, property etc. But we don't have time to speak with persons who really need help and if we help him we are showing this on social media, see what I have done.

So, according to my opinion, it is a virtual connection so come out from this and meet people face to face, speak with them, help them which Will give you inner piece.

Thank you.

Hello everyone,

Today’s topic is very relevant to our generation: Is social media actually connecting people?

I personally believe that social media is both connecting people and making them grow apart at the same time. It has a major impact on our lives; for instance, we can easily keep up with what others are doing by frequently checking their social media accounts. For parents whose children live far away for jobs, studies, etc. Social media is a big help. It allows them to know whether their children are doing well.

However, this virtual connection can also lead to growing apart. People may become so reliant on virtual interactions that they forget to meet in person and take care of their relationships in real life.

To conclude, the effect of social media on relationships depends on how it is used. If used properly, it can keep people connected. If not, it can make people grow distant.

Hi All,
My name is Shruti Singh.
I agree that social media is actually connecting people. As this site provides us with the opportunity to represent our thoughts to everyone.
So, I think they also connected us with each other because I learned some thoughts above there and I also decided to share my thoughts with all of you. This is the first time that I am sharing my thoughts on social media and because I am an introverted person sometimes it's quite tough for me to present myself to anyone.

But on social media, you talk and express your thoughts freely. So, I think they connect people.
But as everyone says everything has its pros and cons.
So, it depends on us how we are using it.
Of course, you can share your thoughts or feelings on social media but please be aware of your limits.
I think social media is good as well as bad
So, it depends on how you are using it.

Thanks!

Hello All,

Good Evening,

My name is Pranav Purohit.
Here, I am discussing about social media is that social media is really connecting people or not.

My point about social media is that everthing has its own pros and cons. It depends on how people really use this. People use social media not only for seeing reels or stories but also for business or entertainment purpose and to earn income as well. People earn huge number of amount from Instagram, Facebook, You tube and through social media, people get connected with other worldwide if we are away from people or in other countries also.

But anything access in life is poison and social media is same in this because there are chances for the cyber crimes and our information and dats 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.

Hello friends, I am going to share something on the topic is "Is social media is connecting people"?

On this we can see social is connecting people offcourse it's connected the unknown people also to be friends but not at all the time there may be fake people like greedy or hackers is there to stole our data and personal detail with that they will threatening or blackmailing us for money. Just use to share some thoughts or do useful things otherwise don't share anything about your personal it may sometime treats us.

On our usage only we can find it is good or bad. So, use in good way to connect with good people or else don't need.
Nowadays, school students also using social media they don't know how to utilise useful but they were thought that is for entertainment purpose but that is not true. It's only for sharing news and learn something when we were far.

Thank you!

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.
