What is good way to talk about people you know?

In French the word that you’d use is’mes connaissances’. But this word also (and mainly) means: the things I know, then the traduction I find is: my knowledges.

Is double meaning exist in English and what should I say to talk about people I know and who know me without being my friends?

Edit (an example of context):

This software is very popular, if you have any problem with it just ask to your connaissances, I think someone could help you.

What are some good statistics about this all time popular online platform?

When I typed for my connaissances in Google, I saw my knowledge then.

What should I do if it is not a countable noun? If you want to refer to those known to you, the word is acquaintance or known.

My acquaintances (derived from acquaintance) -example #3 there.

When would someone say ‘you’re a genius, give the people some inspiration’?
