Is Social Media Actually Connecting People?

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.

In my consent, it is actually not doing for what it came into existence.

Nowadays, parents don't have control over their children. Even a 5 year old now knows how to operate a smartphone and he/she is socially active on every social media website. Besides building contacts, this generation is just wasting their time refreshing the news feeds, tagging people and making vines. People are becoming more self oriented and selfish. They prefer meeting people on social media besides meeting the person personally. So, the social media is not connecting people, it is just making people more self-oriented, reserved and selfish in nature.

Hello friends.

Is social media actually connecting people?

As everything in this world has two face. Likewise, social media connection towards people also has two faces. Yes, It connects the people worldwide. It connects the people who are in such a distance were we can't travel to meet them. So that we can mingle with different people belongs to different area, which makes us to know their lifestyle and culture. We can also get connected with professors, doctors, scientists or any professionals and make use of them to clarify our doubts. We can also get updated with things that happen worldwide. But on the other face it keeps us away from the people around us. Yes, myself suffered from this my sister who I like a lot and love to spend time will never respect my feeling when she uses social media. It really isolates from people around us. Even the healthy food if we consumed more than the level it acts as poison. Likewise, social media too. So, we have to use it in a healthy way.

Social media is (good or bad) depends on the user but its ultimate aim is to connect with people sharing news and developing the technology we people are misusing it so it's usage depends on us.

As per my opinion everything in the world has its pros and cons but it's up to us like How do we use it so that it will benefit us. So in my opinion, social media is very helpful by connecting people not just friends and also for business purposes andv someone who has faced something that should be known to everyone then that person can reach maximum people through social media.

Also, some communities that are not able to express their feeling or cannot get that many opportunities they can also use social media to reach out max people.

And also in covid time, we have seen that on social media we have reached for medical availability.

Yes, we are connected through social media and we disconnected with people around us, we are spending more time on Instagram, facebook, games, staying in home becoming lazy and we stopped interaction with our family. We can't even know if the person in front of us is happy or not,

Social media interaction is for only some time and when people meet in-person and interact is different.

When people meet they can have more interaction then social media, they find many topics to discuss whereas in social media we just stop interacting after some time.

Social media interaction is good but we should spend time with family also.

And we should be on social media as much as required.

In the case on social media, we generally use a term named virtual, so it's our responsibility to in which ratio we give importance to our real and virtual relationships. Social media helps us a lot in setting connections, networking, gathering information, but in the end, these all are virtual and deserve full importance only, when they become real. Otherwise, these connections or relationships can lead us to fraud, cheating, and lots of other cybercrimes.

We can set a connection or relation with people through social but can't ignore the benefits of person-to-person socializing, and engagement in different outdoor activities. Yes, social media is connecting people but all these connections bear meaning when they get converted from virtual to real. So, in the end, it's our responsibility to convert our virtual connections and relationships into real ones, only then we can get the proper benefit of social media.

Hello everyone,

I am Sanjay. I want to share my thoughts about social media connecting people. In my opinion, connecting people through social media is very easy, especially for students.

For example, LinkedIn is a very helpful platform for students to connect with successful people in their careers. Thirty years ago, it was very difficult to reach people, but now networking with people around the world is very easy.

However, on the other hand, it is also ruining real-life relationship bonds.

Hello! this is Sri Jyothi.

As per the topic of social media.

It's impacting today's generation and there are a lot of pros and cons.

In my opinion, the way of using social media is very important but there is a lot of distracting content available due to that content people are addicted.

Adult content is also available in social media due to this content it's impacting relationships and bonds.

That's why India is in first position which country is using social media the most.

People are attracted to unwanted content hence they are wasting they are most of their time in social media.

According to me, It is connecting us and also isolating us. Social Media is connecting the people those who stay far from us and isolated from our family. But this helps the people to share their thoughts on a public issue. People who are using social media forget to spend time with their neighbours and they become lazy.
