Do you think that social media platforms have negative effect on the way people view the world?

Constantly think that way with tiktok. Shortest form of video content we have seen since Vine. Creates narratives that are not discussed properly in the eyes of millions of young people. Quick flashy content is what works on the platform so people use that and over exaggerate everything without providing valid evidence supporting their stance.

Yes, they do. They hamper an individual's thought process and the way they view a certain situation.

Sometimes but we are also in control of who we follow and interact with!

YES!
Binay Singh
Yes, to some extent!

I think that it can if you are following accounts that could have a negative impact on you. There are tons of creators who create educational and positive content that one can choose to follow too!

Yes they do, but that mainly depends on how you use social media. There are many good reasons and ways social media has an impact on the world. Use it well!
Riley Mills
Definitely!
Raghav Mittal
Yes, for most of the things

It depends on what content you are consuming rather on what social media is offering to its viewers.

Yep. These platforms allow you to create your own view of the world. Worse, though, they feed you content to get you to click, not because you like it. So your view of the world around you is made to change based on what you click on, not what you want it to be.

Yes, there are even a few studies about it. Search information about "filter bubbles" and the relationship between social media (with algorithms) and polarization of societies. That should give you more than enough information about the topic.

As people already said here, It depends on how you are using social media. The most thing I like about social media right now is that even if they are across the world I can easily find talented artists and interact with them. They are inspiring me in a positive way to work on my creativity.

Definitely
Akshat Jain
Well, in my view it depends how you are using those platforms.
Kritika Jain
Yeah sometimes, social media encourage people for their unrealistic images and others want to copy them..

Of course

It depends on what to read about. If you read our blog about development, web3, startups and funding, it will definitely benefit you :)
