The value of social media explained for people who don't use it:
Social media is a great way to keep in touch with people, learn about them, post about your every day life and entertain yourself, and keep in touch with the people you care about, even while apart.
The Coronavirus has really demonstrated the values of social media, because it allowed people to socialize with people without spreading the Coronavirus putting themselves or others at risk, and keeping everyone somewhat socialized during quarantine.
It is a great way to find out about news, important events, and stay up to date on everything from local news to politics. Some people who may not use social media might miss out on important updates that the news might not touch on, not get the first glimpse into what is going on in politics or media, and it's even faster than some news stations. Word gets around quick on social media, and you'll never miss a thing if you stay up to date.
It can reconnect you with old friends, estranged family you happen to want to get in touch with again, and it can help you meet new people if you are shy and want to talk about your interests, but are too scared to start a conversation face to face. It can actually help some people get over their initial social anxiety in meeting new people.
To sum it up, social media does have value, even if it seems pointless to some people. But, it isn't, to some people. It can really help people socialize, keep in touch, and even keep up to date on news.
Obviously this isn't the best, but it's at least a start. You can add or take out whatever you would like, and put it in your own words. I hope this was helpful :)
