RODRIGO LUZ
Social Media
AND ITS IMPORTANCE

Social Media has become part of our lives, having a


huge impact on our world, not just in a personal level
but in how society functions.
</>

Advantages
Connection with people
THIS IS A SUBHEADLINE

The biggest aspect of social media is with no doubt


the social one, we use it to talk with the people we
know, to share our life and see what others are doing,
and to follow famous people that we like.
Finding Information

You can use social media to find information on


whatever you want, the best way to do it is in my
opinion through YouTube as you can find videos about
any topic explaining that topic and its easy to
understand.
Entertainment
THIS IS A SUBHEADLINE

We can just use social media for an entertainment.


sake
Short Form Content like Tiktoks, Youtube Shorts and
Instagram reels are the the trend, nowadays users
tend to prefer this shorter content because its quick
and easier to consume.
We can still see posts on our Instagram and Twitter
feed.
</>

Disadvantages
Mental Health
THIS IS A SUBHEADLINE

Social media is a lot of times linked with mental


health problems like anxiety and low self-esteem,
mostly caused by comparision culture by seeing
people "better than us" all the time,
and a lot of the times the other side of this, the
people who seem happy are just obsessed and
dependant on social validation

Other problem is the addiction of social media, this


apps are designed to keep you hooked to them, the
content is endless.
Toxic
THIS IS A SUBHEADLINE

In platforms like Twitter we can see people argue all


the time, this is because in today's age everyone can
say whatever they want behind a screen and people
have no fear of doing this,
Most of the times the trendings at Twitter are about
all types of drama.
