Are links deprecated in Docker Compose?

As I understand “link” flag deprecated in “docker run”, but docker-compose will continue use “link” but using “docker network connect”.

Usage:	docker network connect [OPTIONS] NETWORK CONTAINER

Connect a container to a network

    Options:
          --alias stringSlice           Add network-scoped alias for the container
          --help                        Print usage
          --ip string                   IP Address
          --ip6 string                  IPv6 Address
          --link list                   Add link to another container (default [])
          --link-local-ip stringSlice   Add a link-local address for the container
