Hello everyone,
I've got a question about which one of these are correct in this specific context.
- we are in the 21st century now. You need to move with the time. /you need to move with the times.
Thank you in advance.And please tell me why? What's the reason about choosing times rather than time?

You need to move with the times. This one is correct.
'The Times' talks about the era or the period (Such as the 1990s or 2000s)
Time (No article 'The') means time in general. So, this one means you need to progress at the same rate as time passes.

"you need to move with the times". is the correct alternative
when you say to move with the time it is like saying you need to move with 3 o'clock rather than time in general.
