Are there any social networks which you don't like, but still use?

I use Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook, but I'm not a huge fan of these sites' website template. But, I still use them to follow singers, actors, and people on these social networking sites because they don't post on sites I like more.

I also sometimes use social networking sites to promote my forum, so more people may find and follow my site.
 
For me, I really dislike Facebook. I still hold an account there and check over my timeline, mainly using the messenger feature to talk to friends. Aside from that, I like the other social networks I have an account with (Twitter & Instagram) and actually post on them.
 
I really don't like any of them really, but got to use them for the good of the site (and news related items).
 
Twitter. It's probably the only social network I hate, but I have an account there, out of necessity. Once in a while I am forced to tweet back something to my friends who don't use Facebook.

No. I used to use FB a bit because of my university shares it that social network but not anymore.
I have graduated and I don't need to follow anything anymore.
 
I have a Twitter account. I don't think I'd normally use Twitter....the only reason why I use it is because I have a forum and Twitter helps to get traffic on my forum.
 
I used Twitter before, but left long ago over free speech concerns.
But I see this country is just way too Twitter heavy, going even as far as having to DM a real world event organiser in order to join their event.
So I fear I will have to get back there, and eventually just limit it to whenever necessary.

Facebook
-Lots of fake accounts
-Uncivilized people
-Facebook bans you anytime they want and require a photo of you with an ID

I feel requiring a photo ID for Facebook is not a good rule since not everyone owns a camera, or have ID because they lost their ID, and did not get a new ID to replace their lost ID. Plus, not everyone wants to share their ID with people and companies.

Well yea, no one wants to saw their pic holding their ID with the company's employees, who knows if that employee leak the data to 3rd parties.

I also don't really like sharing my picture with social networks, or even schools, government institutions, strangers, and work places since I'm afraid they use my picture for something like an ad for a political party I don't support, or turn my picture into an internet meme where the websites which post the meme gets a lot of money from advertising revenue where I get nothing, and end up being embarrassed if someone uses my picture for a meme joke without my permission.
